Females in their lifetime experience numerous changes physiologically. The majority of these changes are driven by the presence of sex hormones. Fluctuations in the sex hormones have a positive influence on the periodontal status as well. With receptors present in the gingiva, any change in the hormonal level causes an alteration in the response of periodontal tissues to plaque biofilm. These alterations often warrant a dental consultation for prompt diagnosis and treatment. Patient education regarding oral hygiene maintenance and routine dental follow-up becomes a crucial factor in patient management. This book provides an insight into the various periodontal features encountered in a female patient and ways to its meticulous management.
