Özet: Life of a female itself can be termed as complex journey beginning biologically at puberty and terminating at menopause. Hormones are specific regulatory molecules that have potent effects on the major determinants of the development and the integrity of the skeleton as well as the oral cavity including periodontal tissues by modulating the periodontal tissue response. Periodontal manifestations occur when an imbalance of these steroid hormones take place. The aim of this article is to focus on the changes in periodontium that female experiences during beginning and cessation of her reproductive life and to inform and update practitioner’s knowledge about the impact of these changes in the periodontium of a female.
