Study of Correlation of Serum Vitamin D Levels and Ovarian Reserve in Infertile Patients

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology - Year 2019, Vol 7, Issue 1

Abstract

The aim of the study is to assess any existing association between ovarian reserve and vitamin D levels. This study was designed to assess serum vitamin D levels and association with ovarian reserve in infertile patients. The mean age of cases was 34.3 whereas that of the controls was 33.3 years. There is association between age and ovarian reserve markers. As age advances AMH & AFC is decreased whereas FSH increases. In our study we found significant relation between age and ovarian markers. Present studies did not find any association with BMI. There was no correlation found between vitamin D and AMH. FSH, AFC levels in both the infertile and fertile women groups. In our study both groups showed vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency. The rate of vitamin D deficiency among women with impaired fertility is alarming. Taken altogether, our findings suggest that there is no association between 25 (0H) D and ovarian reserve markers.
