Özet

Aim: Vitamin D deficiency and its relationship with diseases have been an important public health problem that has been studied very much in recent years. Human papilloma virus (HPV) is one of the most common diseases that cause genital infections from genital infections. In this study, we investigated the relationship between vitamin D and HPV infection. Material and Method: Between the ages of 30 and 45 years, 68 women with HPV positive and 30 healthy women with HPV negative were divided into two groups and serum vitamin D levels were compared. Results: There was no difference in serum vitamin D levels between the HPV infection positive group and the HPV infection negative group (mean +/- SD, 13.7 +/- 6.9, 13.3 +/- 5.2), p = 0.804). However, both groups had widespread D vitamin deficiency (less than 20 ng/ml, 82.4% in the HPV (+) group and 83.4% in the HPV (-) group). Discussion: Vitamin D deficiency is very common in young women in our country. Vitamin D deficiency was not associated with HPV infection.
