During pregnancy, if a pregnant woman lacks vitamin D, it not only affects her absorption of calcium, but may also be detrimental to the fetus. Therefore, pregnant women with vitamin D deficiency need to supplement as soon as possible. If you want to know if you are deficient in vitamin D, you need to go for a check-up. So, what are the standards for vitamin D, D2, and D3 for pregnant women?
The reference values for pregnant women's vitamin D, D2, and D3 are 30-150ng/ml. If it is greater than 21 but less than 30ng/ml, it indicates insufficient vitamin D, while if it is less than 20ng/ml, it indicates vitamin deficiency and needs to be replenished quickly. Otherwise, it will cause osteoporosis in pregnant women, excessive sweating in the head, easy tooth breakage, and even pelvic deformities. And once it causes pelvic deformities in pregnant women, it will affect their vaginal delivery.
The deficiency of vitamin D, D2, and D3 in pregnant women also has a significant impact on the fetus, not only causing the appearance of tooth enamel after birth, but also affecting the fetal bone development.
Therefore, if pregnant women lack vitamin D, they must find ways to improve it. There are three common methods to improve vitamin D deficiency, the first of which is to expose oneself to more sunlight. Under the irradiation of sunlight, UVB in the sunlight is synthesized into VD, which can supplement vitamin D. The second method is to eat more fish and animal liver, which can also supplement vitamin D. Finally, one can directly take vitamin D supplements.
