is dry mouth and bad breath related to menopause? how are they connected?

not quite sure if this is related to menopause. but aging is a contributing factor for this. other causes include.. alcohol, diabetes, digestive problems,sinusitis, tobacco and many more.

i don't think so... there are many causes of bad breath. it can cause due to our eating habit, regular smoking or even the medications we take. bleeding gums/gingivitis and other dental problems may be a big factor.

dry mouth is one of meno symptoms that not many woman are aware of. maybe because they consider it more as a side effect of aging rather than a menopause indication.

agree! it's one of the unpleasant meno symptoms that a woman could ever have. this is usually due to the drying out of mucus membranes.
