The article above aim was to determine whether vitamin D levels effects women’s clinical pregnancy rates following in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. A total of 173 infertile women participated in the study that met the following criteria: being in the age category of 18-41 years, follicle-stimulating hormone level 12 IU/L or lower, as well as consent.
Participants of this study were divided into two categories based on their Vitamin D via the serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25[OH]D) levels. Sufficient levels were classified for women to have ≥ 75 nmol/L of vitamin D whereas insufficient levels were classed as being < 75 nmol/L vitamin D levels. Successful patients IVF cycles resulted in a clinical pregnancy, which is defined as a visible intrauterine sac upon ultrasound.
The study concluded that the womens clinical pregnancy rates were subsequently higher per IVF cycle if the patient had a sufficient level of Vitamin D. Thus forming a relationship between serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25[OH]D) levels and clinical pregnancy rates.
