But: I always interpreted Pon Farr, as "Now, I gotta". But nothing in the show ever suggested they couldn't have sex whenever they wanted.
(Why would Amanda have married a man she could only have sex with once every 7 years?)
It could happen

Which isn't directly related to females having female concubines, but it's still what I thought.
