Hormones & BB

Post by Larc400 »

For most people here, chronic BB kicks in around puberty, so something hormonal seems to happen. Also:
"It is common for women to produce bad breath during their menstrual cycle. Hormonal changes make the gums more hospitable to odor causing bacteria."

So, for us, it may be that the hormonal change during puberty (men & women) created a permanent hospitable oral environment for these bacteria (we were unlucky, basically).

It would be logical to try and reverse that, by hormonal therapy of some kind. Do we have any hormonal xperts in the house 8) ?

I remember the first time someone commented on my bb was in sixth grade when a boy I liked said "what smells like rotten eggs?" That was 15 years ago!!! This coincided around the same time I had my first period. Hormones are probably involved in my case.
