Electronomicroscopic Data on Gingival Mucosa on Women in Relation to Ovarian Cycle

Abstract

The structural behavior of cyclic gingival mucosa of woman, in relation to ovarian cycle, was studied at the electronic microscope. Obtained results are less spectacular, at least for the follicular hormone phases, for the time of ovulation and the start and medium estro-progesteronic phases. They become more evident in the final estro-progesteronic phase and the hemorrhagic phase.
