Default where is my oil?

I'm having an oil problem with my stock Civic LX (D15B7). I need to add at least 1 quart of oil to it every week. So my question is where has the oil gone to? The car doesn't smoke or show signs of burning oil. It runs smooth and strong. Has anyone had this problem before?

Maybe your getting alot of blowby from your pcv valve? Any leaks anywhere? check your oil pan for oil or anything leaking out. Also you need to list how many miles and such and do you rape it alot?

No leakage anywhere, oil pan and valve cover gaskets are sealing up good. Motor has 212K miles but still runs smooth.
