Popis: Low calcium intake and parity may be factors affecting calcium homeostasis during pregnancy and lactation. In this study, changes of urinary indices related to bone and renal adjustments of calcium homeostasis were measured in each trimester of pregnancy and in the lactation period, in primiparous (n=35) and multiparous (n=25) women with habitual calcium intakes about half the RDA for this nutrient, in comparison to neverpregnant (control) women (n=23) with similar calcium intakes. Calcium and phosphorous urinary excretion did not change during pregnancy but decreased in the lactation period, similarly in primiparas and mutiparas (p
