Abstract

Summary. Vitamin D plays an important role in all stages of the formation of the female body, from the embryonic period to old age. Deficiency or poverty of this vitamin is manifested by the development of dysmetabolic disorders, increased cardiovascular risk, increases the incidence of tumors of the endometrium, mammary glands, ovaries, colon and accompanies a number of other  hyperproliferative diseases. Some studies have shown an association between vitamin D deficiency and brain function, as well as aging.

The aim of the study – to analyze the world experience of the last decade in the study of the role of Vitamin D in woman’s body. To analyze the risk factors, pathogenesis and causes of diseases, that comes in result of deficit of Vitamin D.

Materials and Methods. Available resources in the Internet, foreign professional publications, MEDLINE/PubMed medical databases of the last ten years. The method of information search and analytical-comparative method were applied.

Results. Experimental and clinical works of the last decade were aimed at solving numerous problems such as the role of vitamin D in pathogenesis of variety of diseases, numerous studies in explanation basic pathogenesis mechanisms of influence were conducted and there are even evidence of positive impact of slowing the growth of cancerous tumors down. Interesting data was received by authors, who noted a significant decrease in the degree of manifestation of depressive symptoms after a 9-week course of vitamin D after interviewing adolescent girls on various scales of depression.

Conclusions. During many years vitamin D was considered as a food component, which plays an important role in bone metabolism. Today it is known as steroid hormone, which has important regulatory role in various physiological systems of the human body, including the immune system. Convincing data illustrates connection between deficit of vitamin D and various infectious and non-infectious diseases.
