Effect of Vitamin D Level on Female Vaginitis in Xi’an, China
This study examined the statistical findings of vitamin D-related data from 5978 vaginitis patients, revealing a positive correlation between vitamin D deficiency and vaginitis occurrence. Patients with vitamin D deficiency/severe deficiency showed weakly positive levels of catalase and mostly weakly positive levels of acetylglucosaminidase, and most of these vaginitis are trichomonas vaginalis (TV). Furthermore, older individuals and those with higher BMI were found to be more susceptible to symptoms of vitamin D deficiency.
