Size of the Uterine Fibroids
Conditions
Brief summary
Vitamin D supplementation in patients with uterine fibroids who present hypovitaminosis D to re-establish their normal serum values could stabilize the size of the uterine fibroids and thus prevent their growth or reduce their size thanks to the anti-proliferative action of Vitamin D on the myoma cells.
