Abstract
The article presents the results of a clinical and paraclinical examination of patients with functional ovarian cysts in order to optimize the management of women to improve their reproductive health. Observational studies show that inadequate levels of vitamin D can negatively affect reproductive function, disrupting hormonal balance, follicular development, and implantation processes. The reproductive anamnesis, complaints, history of the disease, features of the hormonal and metabolic status, and D-status of patients were analyzed. Based on the results obtained, a conclusion was drawn on the feasibility of determining the level of vitamin D in patients with functional ovarian cysts and eliminating vitamin deficiency.
