Abstract

The aim of the study is to follow up a number of biochemical, immunological and physiological changes associated with vitamin D deficiency in pregnant women. 50 samples were collected from pregnant women, 50 from control group and 50 from non-pregnant women. A number of laboratory tests were carried out on the withdrawn blood samples. These tests examined the ELISA to measure vitamin D concentration. The concentration of vitamin D in the pregnant women group, control group and the non-pregnant women group (26.31,43.97,50.9) were found to be Nano mole / L respectively, indicating a decrease in vitamin D concentration in pregnant women compared to the control group. The results of the present study showed a significant decrease in the volume of the red blood cells in the three studied groups at the probability level P
