What do you call that phenomenon? I know it is something"clock". I have noticed that whenever I worlk with a group of women, our menstral cycles always seem to fall into sync.

It's called the McClintock Cycle, or Syndrome. When women live or work together their cycles will sync up. This is due to pheromones that each woman emits. These pheromones "speak" to the others in the group and slight variations in their respective hormonal cycles will cause the cycles to align. This happened to me and my roomates in college. We all would have our periods with in a 10 day window of each other...talk about a happy home...hahaha!

it is very authentic. i replaced into deployed on a Naval vessel for 6 months and those whose cycles weren't being regulated with the help of the pill immediately aligned with one yet another. it truly is something about hormones and the pull of the moon (which determines all issues clearly cyclical. My dotor also reported that the most useful female contained in the crew's (the Queen B i wager) hormones also dictates the position the cycles finally end up. don't know how authentic that very last area is in spite of the reality that.

Congruent cycles or menstrual synchrony....usually women in a dorm or shared housing get in synch, and may be tied to lunar 28 day cycle.
