The relationship between decreased female hormone and xerostomia

口干症常见于更年期妇女。本研究旨在探讨口干症与女性荷尔蒙及自主神经功能的关系。状态焦虑与女性激素、特质焦虑与女性激素差异有统计学意义。口干症治疗后仅简化绝经指数有明显改善。由于自主神经功能和未受刺激的唾液容易受到环境的影响，可能需要多次测量。此外，可能需要进行大量受试者的研究。

Xerostomia is frequently seen in menopausal women. The purpose of this study was to discuss the relation of xerostomia, female hormone and autonomic nervous function. There were statistical significant differences between state anxiety and female hormone, trait anxiety and female hormone. Only simplified menopausal index was improved significantly after treatment of xerostomia. Because autonomic nervous function and unstimulated saliva tend to be influenced by the environment, multiple measurements may be needed. In addition, the study in large number of subjects may be needed.
