Microbiota and Postmenopause: The resilience of intestinal bacteria in the face of female hormonal aging
Women who had been post-menopausal for ten years or more had microbiota with greater diversity and less dominance of taxa. There was no difference between the ten most enriched taxa in each group. Our results indicated that the fecal Microbiota of these women showed a uniform and equitable distribution of the organisms inferred for the groups, regardless of the time elapsed since postmenopause.
