Spontaneous sexual: arousal is not terribly uncommon. It is difficult to link it to specific phases of the menstrual cycle; 3 weeks before a regular period would be before predicted ovulation and not necessarily a hormonally susceptible time. Some have reported positional factors such as sitting where clitoral stimulation might be more likely. There are some treatments; consider an evaluation with your PCP or OB/GYN.
