VITAMIN-MINERAL COMPLEX CHANGING DEPENDING ON THE DURATION OF PREGNANCY IN WOMEN WITH IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA

Abstract

This article presents the results of a study on the changes in the vitamin-mineral complex in women with iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) during various trimesters of pregnancy. The main indicators of the vitamin-mineral complex in the blood of 131 women of reproductive age were analyzed using hematological, biochemical, and immuno-ferment methods. The study consisted of 21 non-pregnant healthy women (control group), 30 pregnant women without anemia (comparison group), and 80 pregnant women with IDA (main group). The results of the study demonstrate that among pregnant women with varying degrees of severity of iron deficiency anemia (IDA), there is a decrease in the concentration of iron, ferritin, folic acid, vitamins B12, and D, along with a tendency towards a decrease in the levels of calcium, potassium, and magnesium. These changes are dependent on the severity of the anemia, the gestational stage, and manifest in various clinical symptoms.
