Answers:
Menstrual synchrony it is called. Women were tribal, lived in close groups and so if they all menstruated at same time and got pregnant at same time if a baby was stillborn or a mother died in birth, there were other surrogates available to nurse the offspring to ensure mankind survived, despite being modern day women , the body is still finely tuned to this biological mystery.Health Question & Answer
