How physical health is influenced by oral health

This article discusses the impact of oral health on physical health, particularly in women. It highlights the influence of conditions such as PCOS, menstrual cycle, pregnancy hormones, and osteoporosis on oral health. Hormonal fluctuations in PCOS can lead to gum inflammation, while gum disease can worsen hormonal imbalances. Women may experience oral health changes during their menstrual cycle, and pregnancy-related hormonal changes can increase the risk of gum disease and enamel erosion.
