  • It is true that women do feel hornier during menstruation, you're not the only one. I'm actually studying the reproductive system right now in med school and found your question interesting and I did a bit of research. There's no definitive answer as to why this happens. However, I have a theory I just thought of and with a bit of research it might be true. During your period prostaglandins increase (they increase due to a reduction in your progesterone). This increases causes your uterine wall to shed and also have cramps. I found that when prostaglandins were injected in male boars it increased their sperm ejaculation and amount of time they stayed mounted (this is according to a random research paper I quickly skinmed). So maybe that's the reason? Who knows, would find it to be an interesting thing to research.
    Estrogen plays a role in libido though for sure, but during your menstruation it is at its lowest point. Estrogen is at its highest around ovulation (14 days into your cycle) so that's why you feel the horniest around that time.

    • Thank you for your response. I have the same issue during my period. i find it strange that my sex drive not as intense during my fertile days , which is when I would assume would make sense.

  • It's not at all weird question Mam.

    It is normal for girls to feel horny during the periods. It is because of the release of un fertilized ovam from the ovaries.

    The body feels horny and naughty thoughts increased due to triggered by the changes taking place in the body of the girls. So just masturbate to satisfy your own need and feel better.

    Please don't misinterprete me.

    Hope it helps Madam.

  • Very 😊 Ovulation week is generally where we're most horny due to a progesterone spike which then dips low again right before our period starts. Not sure what it is but two or three says into it and I'm climbing the walls for some lovin

  • Basically it comes down to hormones. Human women are one of the only animals receptive to sex at any part of their cycle.

  • Yep! Completely normal. It's due to an increase of hormones.

  • its very normal

  • oh it is that is when she is most fertile. so her body naturally wants sex. it's instinctual. you desire to procreate

    • We're not fertile during our period

    • I realize the egg has past and the fertility is mostly gone. However, a female can still get pregnant while on her period. To me that says fertile. I could be wrong. After all, I am just a man.

    • The odds are incredibly low, but it's a rare possibility however giving correct information when posing it as a fact rather than an opinion (especially on this issue) is important. Saying a woman is most fertile on her period and it's a natural time to want to procreate is completely false 😊 Men can read 😉 I wouldn't think their additional appendage makes them incapable
