Can a man sense when you are ovulating?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

In my experience, yes.

I just don’t know if it is a conscious thing or if they realize they notice that.

It is not scientifically proven that men can sense when a woman is ovulating. While some research has suggested that men may be able to detect subtle changes in a woman's scent or behaviour during ovulation, there is not enough evidence to support this claim.

In general, ovulation is a complex process that involves a number of physiological and hormonal changes, and these changes are not always easily noticeable by others. Additionally, each woman's ovulation patterns are unique and may be influenced by a variety of factors, including stress, diet, and medical conditions.

Ultimately, the idea that men can sense when a woman is ovulating is a myth and not supported by scientific evidence. The best way for a woman to track her ovulation is to use methods such as tracking her menstrual cycle, monitoring her basal body temperature, or using ovulation predictor kits.

The ways in we can detect aren't necessarily sensorial but behavioral.

[abc3643]

At times, yes!

I had a close friend, Rachel. I knew her well and then, one day, she was considerably friendlier and for no reason like something good happened in her life. I ask "Rachel, are you ovulating?" She happily was surprised and said "Yes!"

Women who ovulate are often a bit more friendly to males. I guess that makes up for how bitchy they can be on their periods. (j/k) ;)

[Daniela1982]

I assume they are like animals who can tell when a bitch is in heat. Can't you smell when some girls are on their periods?

[FilmGuy93]

Eh... kind of. It's like a delicious, fertile aroma.

[Paul_in_Indy]

I don’t think we have any means to detect the physical fact. I do think that women tend to act differently in different parts of their cycle—and men are very attuned to tiny differences in behavior and responses where sex is concerned.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I can imagine it’s easy to notice, because ovulation makes your mind totally turn over for those few days and it’s like you don’t have your own mind anymore.

[Paul_in_Indy]

I am always “extra careful” about birth control when she is acting especially responsive.
(I mean, I am always very careful, but I am extra alert sometimes.)

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I don’t really think women are that obsessed with having children when ovulating. What I think is that their libido is just very high around that time.

It’s good you are careful, but why are you extra careful? You think they’ll try to get pregnant or something? 🤣 Or it’s just you think there’s a higher chance for them to get pregnant?

[Paul_in_Indy]

I don’t want to have the birds and bees talk with you if you aren’t ready for it, yet, but… :) We can only get pregnant when you are ovulating. So, if I detect that extra sexuality that can be associated with ovulation, I am aware of it.

[Paul_in_Indy]

I know you aren’t always ovulating when you are more sexual. But it’s a sign that I pick up on, and in my mind I associate it with that cause.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I assumed you didn’t have to pick up on those signs or detect them yourself. Wouldn’t she just tell you she is ovulating?

[Paul_in_Indy]

No girl has ever told me she was ovulating. When I was younger, I doubt most of them had any awareness of it.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I didn’t know that. Thought it’s something your partner should know.

[TadCurious]

I can't sense that. The only thing I might be able to do is speculate where she is in her cycle based on her last period (assuming I knew when her last period ended).

[lightbulb27]

no, but it's clear there's differences in cycle timing.

Dogs sure can tell when dogs are up to something.

[Leopard23]

I think women send out signals and the man responds

[BarryLiverstone]

I’d say it’s more subconscious. While there are a few hints, not sure it’s obvious. Why do you ask?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

What are the hints?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I was just wondering because of the present experiences.

[BarryLiverstone]

Sometimes girls are more touchy, they sometimes show more skin, seem to flirt more and I remember reading an article that talked about the skin flushing

[Anonymous]

Yes. It's a little known fact to women that you all make this slight "clicking" sound when ovulating that is at a frequency that only the male genders ears can pick up.

[Pete671]

Yes we can, pheremones kick in and we can smell them,,,

[Slay256]

I sense it based off her energy. But I do ask just to be sure she is on her period.

[Anonymous]

The only way I know is because she gets horny and acts different.

[Agape93]

Not that I've noticed

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

And do you notice changes in your mood or personality?

[Agape93]

I used to, I don't have them anymore. Partial hysterectomy.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Oh, okay.

[dolemite89]

is it like a rooster crowing?

[TheSpaceGnome]

Not unless you have pms.

[Jennz6]

I’m not really sure?

[gorydetails]

There's evidence that we can.

[Fuentes]

I'm not a mind reader so no I can't

[In_Trance]

Guys are dumb. They have no idea

[Iron_Man]

No lol

[EaterPeter]

I guess

[EaterPeter]

I have felt it on different ocassions

[EaterPeter]

Some of them looks so likable

[eagle1951]
