ABSTRACT

This study valued by Eosinophilic Index (EI) or cellular maturation index the behaviour of oral mucosa cells undergoing stimulus of hormones during menstrual cycle, as well as vaginal cells according to a supposition by several Authors. Specimens by scraping of oral mucosa cells in female patients selected by standards of regular menstrual cycle and absence of any oral pathology or dental prosthesis, actually showed EI changes according to cycle stage and rate of hormonal effect probably. On the other hand, specimens by scraping or oral mucosa cells in male patients showed constant EI rates during monthly cycle. Being statistical study not significant because of little series of specimens--it's difficult to select a lot of women and to control them during their whole menstrual cycle working in a small surgery! -, yet Authors confirm results of previous studies by different Authors. If the relationship between cellular maturation of oral cells and effect of hormones during menstrual cycle resulted, it could be possible further on to investigate, for example, the behaviour of epithelial cells being in any periodontal pocket undergoing stimulus of female hormones.
