Okay, seriously.

[conuly]

Do any of my female friends NOT have their period? Because the odds of this coinkydink of blood week should be slim, right?

XD lol, I'm on mine as well.. o_O

[aquamizuko.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I've heard that women living together or that see each other often can somehow have their peroids synced to be at around the same times (possibly due to hormones given off or something) but it'd be weird if it happened online as well..

[mhari.livejournal.com]

Not me. I'm about due, though.

[conuly]

Yeah, that used to happen to my sister(s) and me all the time. Heck, it even happened last month, and we don't still all live together! But we see each other often enough, so....

Finished mine Sunday! Three weeks of my happy cotton panties lay ahead.

[zarriq.livejournal.com]

I've got it.

[masterflare421.livejournal.com]

Yep, I've had that happen. But the more annoying thing that happens to me is that if I'm grouped with a bunch of women for a few weeks my will jump on and off with everyone's period until it decides to be on someone else's schedule.

And on topic with the main post, my period should be starting in two days.

*adds a bloody icon for a bloody post*

Not me, but then mine is very odd. I ought to see a doctor about it but I've never gotten around to it. It's always really really light and sometimes doesn't come for months at a time... On the other hand, it's nice not to have to worry about it much.

[conuly]

Some people do just have irregular periods.

[xiggaroo.livejournal.com]

I'm not. :D

[wetcircuitry.livejournal.com]

Weird! The same has been happening to me, but it only started last year. My period just.. stopped. I didn't have it for 4 months, and then it just started again. I got it twice, and now it's MIA again.. I should have gotten it a week ago. This about the same time it stopped last year, too.

At first I thought nothing of it, as I heard that girls can have weird periods during their teens (even if I am an older teen), and at the time I was under MAJOR stress. I don't why it's happening this time.

Can a period that has, for the most part been normal, suddenly go irregular..?

[conuly]

Um, from what I remember, stress can do it, as can your body adjusting (some people freakishly are more regular when young than when they stop puberty), and certain medical conditions.

[wetcircuitry.livejournal.com]

Huh, weird. I knew stress could sometimes do it, but I didn't know about the less-regular-after-puberty thing.

On a completely unrelated note, I noticed that after lots of activity (exercise, etc.) and I sit down, I start coughing like I have a cold. It usually goes away after a few minutes. My mom is starting to worry I have some kind of disease because my period's funky and the coughing thing is weird. :P Anyone know about the random coughing? I really don't wanna pay $20 to have my doc tell me it's nothing..

[parashiggy.livejournal.com]

Supposed to be on mine, but, I'm late again...

[claire-d.livejournal.com]

I used to be REALLY regular and then I had to have the morning after pill, about 6 months ago, and I've been missing some ever since! (though NOT for any other reason apart from being a bit freaky...thank God!)

Evening Primrose oil (vitamin tablets) are good for that, though...apparently! x

[conuly]

Huh, weird. I knew stress could sometimes do it, but I didn't know about the less-regular-after-puberty thing.

It IS backwards from most people, but I've heard about it once or twice.

What sort of excercise? Does it change depending on the weather, or what you've eaten recently (the past few days)? Or the environment?

[amarafox.livejournal.com]

I don't! :D

[moggymania.livejournal.com]

Just added you as a friend, as I've been meaning to for months...and I'm not on my period, though that's probably because I'm on the new "every four months or when I feel like it" plan for the pill. I can't wait until permission is given by the FDA to do "every year" or "every few years" or "never unless she wants kids"! :-)

[conuly]

never unless she wants kids"!

Hysterectomy?

You can always just not take the placebo. And I'm glad you added me, I can stop sneaking to your site and notcommenting.

[moggymania.livejournal.com]

"never unless she wants kids"!

>Hysterectomy?

I'd like to get one, but my GYN keeps refusing. I lost the ovaries long ago (good riddance) so having the period every so often is just an annoyance. :) I wouldn't be on the pill at all, except I need it for hormone replacement... Skipping the placebo is actually exactly how they're administering the longer-term doses.

I'm looking forward to getting your comments on my LJ (and/or my blog, which is often different)...

[conuly]

*grins* Good, because I was reading that before I got Livejournal (I'm a random linkhopper) but I didn't wanna seem too lurky. So of course, delurking wasn't an option.

[meteorie.livejournal.com]

I'm not, but I'm weird like that. One time at church camp, I swear, EVERY GIRL in the cabin was on their period. Except, of course, me. The counselor had to have a chat with all the girls. I felt kind of bad...

[feathered.livejournal.com]

I'm not. Happily!

[strangelette.livejournal.com]

Just got off mine. I was laughing about that this morning reading your first entry, you must be the alpha female. Of course it's one of 3 or 4 this year so I can't complain about much. I'm a big fan of birth control pills :)

[the-lady-aurora.livejournal.com]

I'm not but then again mine have been really irregular for the past 12 months. It's probably something to do with my renal failure and dialysis - apparantly it can affect the hormones. My last one was at Christmas - which happens every year. Even if I've only just finished one the week before, it makes a reappearance just for Christmas.

When I worked in an office, most of us seemed to synchronize our periods with each other. I felt really sorry for the 2 guys who worked with us 30 females suffering from varying degrees of PMT.
