Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Japan, unlike the general world trend, the underweight population among women of childbearing age has been increasing; this has become one of the factors leading to the higher rate of newborns with low birth weight. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between serum AMH levels and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OH-D) in healthy Japanese women between the ages of 21 and 39 years based on measurements of nutritional status and physical constitution. the present study suggested that pre-pregnancy nutritional status and physique may affect ovarian reserve. Nutritional support that considers the nutritional status and physique of women of childbearing age is thought to be necessary. An investigation concerning serum 25OH-D levels and a reference intake for vitamin D with consideration for pregnancy potential is a future research challenge.
