Variability of Female Horniness/Promiscuity Over Menstrual Cycle on THE PILL

Some women lose their interest for sex when they're on the pill. I know some cases.
I guess it's related to the way the pill works. It basically tells the pituitary gland in brain to stop producing FSH and LH (hormones that make egg cell in ovaries to grow, change the endometrium, basically, they control the cycle). I think the key to this is in LH because it raises just before the ovulation and it's connected with production of progesterone, and more importantly for making them want sex more, testosterone. When on pill, there is no LH surge, no ovulation and no raise in testosterone.
Then again, a lot of women show no change in horniness when they start taking the pill so you never can tell. Human body is complex.
