Menopausal hormonal status and vaginal microbiology.

The authors have examined endocrine function in women during postmenopausal age. They have also studied polymicrobic vaginal flora related to sexual hormone levels. Have been controllated correlations between vaginal microbic status and cytohormonal response at different hormonal situation present in the same woman. In postmenopausal women have been formed low oestrogen levels related to low presence of Doderlein. Perhaps in postmenopausal women other factors than oestrogen and progesterone levels, could influence vaginal polymicrobic flora.
