Fertile pheromones/more sex?

[jvkohl]

"A woman's

libido may be heightened when she is ovulating so she has an increased interest in sex, or she may produce more

pheromones, chemicals that send messages to other individuals, that increase her sexual

attractiveness."

Thanks for the link JVK. I

noticed that it mentioned not using contraceptives. I assume that refers to the pill, as well. I would be curious

to see the results from a study that includes women who were using the pill. While we have discussed the effects of

using contraceptives on things like hormonal fluctuations and sensitivity to male pheromones, I'm wonderng about

the effect on a woman's pheromonal production. Then again, this could have been previously discussed and I simply

do recall.
