Hypoparathyroidism and pregnancy

Abstract

No clear-cut clinical recommendations for the management ofpatients with hypoparathyroidism have been developed. Reports on the use of vitamin D in pregnant patients are scanty. This review of literature describes the specific features ofphosphoruscalcium metabolism during pregnancy in health and hypoparathyroidism and discusses problems of therapy for this conditions and the safety of calcitriol during gestation and breast feeding.
