Vitamin D and pregnancy outcomes

Is there a role for vitamin D in human reproduction
TL;DR: There remains some concern that the effects of vitamin D on reproduction are not direct, but rather secondary to the accompanying hypocalcemia or estrogen dysregulation, and there is evidence for its role in polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis, leiomyomas, in-vitro fertilization, and pregnancy outcomes.

TL;DR: The most conclusive evidence is in the role of maternal vitamin D supplementation in the prevention of neonatal hypocalcaemia; as a consequence the UK department of health recommends that pregnant women take 400 IU vitamin D daily.

Hypovitaminosis D is associated with insulin resistance and β cell dysfunction
TL;DR: A positive correlation of 25(OH)D concentration with insulin sensitivity and a negative effect of hypovitaminosis D on beta cell function are shown, which are at higher risk of insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome.
Hypovitaminosis D is associated with insulin resistance and cell
TL;DR: In this paper, the relation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations to insulin sensitivity and cell function was investigated, and the results showed that 25-OHD concentration was positively correlated with ISI (P 0.0001) and negatively correlated with 1st and second-phase insulin responses (1stIR and 2ndIR).
