Vitamin D in Ectopic Pregnancies

Overview

According to recent evidences, vitamin D was found to have important roles in female reproductive system, both in physiological and also pathological mechanisms. Since vitamin D is tightly related with calcium metabolism, both molecules were reported to be associated with some pregnancy complications including preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, low birth weight, preterm delivery, and cesarean section rates. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the vitamin D levels in ectopic pregnancies, which may have clinical importance in the etiology of this disorder.
