“…The steroid sex hormones such as estrogen and estradiol have been known for their effect on bone mineral metabolism. Other bone turnover‐related hormones include progesterone, testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, androstenedione, dihydroepiandrostenedione, and sex hormone‐binding globulin (Katz & Epstein 1993). Among these, estrogens, progesterone, and testosterone have been most linked with periodontal pathogenesis and therefore will be described in detail in the paper.…”

“…Progesterone is another sex hormone that may play an important role in bone metabolism during pre‐ and postmenopause (Katz & Epstein 1993). It is believed that ovarian deficiency and associated alterations, but not aging, are the predominant causes of bone loss during the first two decades after menopause (Richelson et al 1984).…”

“…Researches have shown that progesterone may compete with glucocorticoids for an osteoblast receptor and inhibit the glucocorticoid‐induced osteoporosis. Therefore, postmenopausal bone density reduction may be the result of a combination of the inhibition of osteoclast downregulation by reduced estrogen and the increased cortisol inhibition of osteoblasts via the reduction of competition with progesterone (Katz & Epstein 1993).…”

Background:Puberty, menses, pregnancy, and menopause are the different phases of a woman's life which have a varied influence on oral health. During the menopause, women go through biological and endocrine changes, particularly in their sex steroid hormone production which affects their health. Because the oral mucosa contains estrogen receptors, variations in hormone levels can be seen directly in the oral cavity leading to a few oral conditions and diseases seen more frequently during postmenopausal years.Objective:The objective of this study is to assess periodontal health status in postmenopausal women in and around Meerut city.Materials and Methods:The study sample comprised ninety postmenopausal women. History of menopause was recorded, and the dental examinations were done by measuring the following parameters of periodontal health: plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket probing depth, and Russell's periodontal index. The collected data were subjected to statistical analyses.Results and Conclusion:In the study group, mean age was 55 years, mean missing teeth were 10.3, mean duration of menopause was 9.23. Eleven percent females were completely edentulous, and 5 females had never brushed. Mean PI-s was 1.99, mean GI-s was 1.74, mean BOP was 52.85, and mean Russell's periodontal index was 4.34. Eleven patients were at the initial stages of destructive periodontal disease, 34 had established destructive periodontal disease while thirty patients had the terminal periodontal disease. These findings suggest that females after menopause are at a risk of developing destructive periodontal disease if proper oral hygiene practices are not followed.

Hormones are specific regulatory molecules that have potent effects on the major determinants of the development and the integrity of the skeleton and oral cavity including periodontal tissues. Sex hormones have long been considered to play an influential role on periodontal tissues, bone turnover rate, wound healing and periodontal disease progression. This review focuses on the effects of endogenous sex hormones on the periodontium and the goal is to inform and update practitioners' knowledge about the impact of these hormones on periodontal status.
