Use of birth control pill could be leading women by the nose
If you've ever wondered "What the hell was I thinking?" after breaking up with a bloke, you may want to blame the birth control pill.
Seems that teeny tiny contraceptive may be altering your mate selection by tinkering with the type of male scent that attracts you, a combined study by the universities of Liverpool and Newcastle has found.
What's the big deal, you ask?
Well, when untampered with, a woman's natural mate selection steers her toward finding a mate who is genetically different.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
