Periods

FriendlyPotato December 23, 2024 10:23 am

I was reading an omega x alpha story and I realized that the question of periods never comes up in these stories. It would be logical that omegas should have period since they are ovulating but I've never read an omega story that talks about it
Also do alpha females still have periods when they are the one fertilizing the eggs ? Can an alpha female make a baby by herself ? Same for an omega male ?
I have so many questions, so little answer
I don't read a lot of omegas world type of stories but I've still read a few and I don't remember any of those questions ever being mentioned or answered

    sometimes it's better not to know....jk it really depends on the author, some make female alpha have a penis so no uterus no vagina no menstrual period, some make them have vagina still but can impregnate omega but not get pregnant, some have vagina can get pregnant can't impregnate and the only alpha trait they have is strong pheromones that make omega weak. also this is not even including dominant/recessive traits.

    sometimes the author will explain how things work throughout the work and sometimes they expect you to understand (you see female alpha with a penis, you understand you don't have uterus so no pregnancy no period)

    1) omegaverse follows estrous cycles (i.e., heats), which are different from menstruation cycles (i.e, periods). in real life for example, dogs and cats have estrous cycles, whereas humans and elephant shrews have menstruation cycles.
    so there's a logical reason behind no periods being mentioned in omegaverse

    2) some stories feature a character having male and female parents who are both alpha, so yes i'd think that an alpha female can still bear children even if they are also capable of fertilising eggs. but this depends on the author

    3) this is just my guess, but alpha females and omega males probably don't have the anatomy/fertile cells/right variety of chromosomes to create viable offspring by themselves

    That makes more sense when you put it that way, thanks

    I still think authors should make it a little bit clearer because it just make the stories really messy
