Hormones and sex drive

Do you notice you are more interested in sex during certain times in your cycle? If so is it just during ovulation or are there other times? Do you think the increased sex drive is because you want to get pregnant or do you think it would happen anyway?

I tend to be much more turned on just before I ovulate and sometimes on the day I ovulate, but not always. I also find that my sex drive increases right before AF shows. I don't really think this is just about baby making either. I was like this even when we used condoms.

I dont really see a change in my sex drive during different times of my cycle. I even tried to pay attention to it and I dont see a difference from the start to the end.

I think some people are more sensitive to hormonal changes than others. I am very sensitive to hormone shifts. I get migraines around AF too and sometimes around ovulation.

I tend to get more of a sex drive after AF. Also a little around/before Oing.

I definitely notice an increase in sex drive around O time. It was killing me before we were TTC because we can't use condoms since I am allergic and had to abstain.

I tend to want to BD around O time. I think that it is because I want a baby so bad because when I am not TTC I usually don't want it AS bad around that time. Right now I am starting to et where I want it and I know O time is here so I am just hoping that I can time it right this month!

I am much more aroused and sensitive in that area when I'm about to O. I don't enjoy sex very much because of the pain so when I'm suddenly interested it's a good chance I'll be Oing in a couple of days!
