Popis: Objective: Most recent evidence from conducted in human and animal studies suggests that vitamin D has a potential role in the physiology of reproductive function in both genders. We investigate the role of vitamin D in male and female gonadal function at mini-puberty period with particular emphasis on production of sex steroids and gonadal peptide hormones. Additionaly, this study evaluated serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), folliclestimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol (E2), total testosteron (TT), anti-müllerian hormone (AMH), and inhibin B in a large prospective cohort of infant at mini-puberty period.
