It is one of the most common worldwide human infections [1].H. pylori play a vital role in the development of chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, gastric adenocarcinoma, and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma [2]. The current study included (120) pregnant women, (50) positive anti -H. Pylori Ig and (70) negative anti- H. Pylori Ig with pregnancy for first, second and third semester at mean age/ years 28.36 for the positive anti-H. Pylori and 26.17 for the negative anti-H. Pylori appeared that an alteration of zinc level in serum of positive anti- H. Pylori Ig groups was (48.904 ± 18.3486) (μg/dl) comparing with the negative groups (90.757 ± 9.2727) with the highly significant difference (P < 0.01). While serum copper levels of positive anti-H. Pylori Ig group was (μg/dl), (100.412 ± 23.8234), documented as normal highly significant (P < 0.01) compared to the negative anti- H. Pylori Ig group (114.971 ± 20.4995).In this study, the GIT disorder with anti-H. Pylori Ig positive groups were (32, 64%) and anti-H.
