Correlation of Vitamin D3 (Calcitriol) Serum Concentrations with Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid in Women Undergoing in vitro Fertilisation/Intracytoplasmatic Sperm Injection

Conclusions: Our results suggest a model in which the sun exposure during summer months enables storage of D3 followed by a slow release as a major factor to maintain D3 levels throughout the year. Finally, our data indicate that B12 and folic acid uptake might be influenced by vitamin D receptor and D3, where D3 and the BMI appear to have an indirect relationship – via B12 and folic acid.Gynecol Obstet Invest
