Pattern of women’s sexual behaviour
Juan J. On the other hand, men find the scent of women at mid-cycle more pleasant and sexually attractive than during the luteal phase. Females of most vertebrate species exhibit recurring periods of heightened sexual activity in which they are sexually attractive, proceptive and receptive to males. The term estrus, however, is also used to designate the ovulatory cycle estrous cycle and to refer to a specific stage of the cycle when ovulation occurs estrus phase. Moreover, the estrus stage of the cycle is not when behavioural estrus occurs since females from most mammalian species allow the male to mate only at the proestrus stage of the ovarian cycle Lisk, ; Thornton and Finn, As mentioned above, the term estrus is not used to refer to the reproductive cycle of Old World monkeys, apes and humans. Notwithstanding, with regard to ovulation and hormonal levels, the mid-cycle in a catarrhine menstrual cycle is comparable with the estrus stage of the ovarian cycle in the majority of mammals as presented in a review Nelson, In contrast to the majority of mammalian species, women do not exhibit an evident and manifest heat period, extending sexual activity to all parts of the ovulatory or menstrual cycle. However, this hypothesis is not supported by data suggesting that the interplay among various physiological and environmental factors in vertebrate reproductive behaviour is not scaled according to the degree of encephalization or conscious control, but varies according to the particular ecological and social demands that each species faces Steklis and Whiteman, In this article, we aim to throw light on the controversial topic of whether women have a heat period within their menstrual cycle.

Nepalese woman Pabitra Giri prepares to sleep in a Chhaupadi hut during her menstruation period in Surkhet District, some km west of Kathmandu. All around the world, and throughout history, women have been shamed, sequestered, and medicalised for bleeding regularly. The time has come to speak plainly and directly about this straightforward biological function of the human body. As you read this today, more than million women worldwide are having a period. None of us would exist without it and yet it remains one of our most tenacious biological taboos. Writers and broadcasters happily discuss sex, digestion and blood circulation — all natural processes — while menstruation is still off-limits.
