Microbiota, as one type of environment cue, can trigger host epigenetic modification. In particular, hosts have the ability to respond to environmental stimuli through the alterations of DNA methylation and histone modifications , which can have long-term effects on the host’s physiology.
To add to this, There have been a few studies now showing that microbes could contribute to hormones on both a localized and systemic level.
So im already thinking is there a type of composition that contributes to a male phenotype.
Right off the bat what bacteria is mostly associated with all things androgen?
P.acnes.
Idk.
