Abstract

Background: Vitamin D deficiency can adversely affect Women's health and their offspring. Studies have uncovered many determinants of vitamin D,however, few have explored its relationship with Socioeconomic Status. Objectives: We aimed to determine the serum 25(OH)D level and its relationship with Socioeconomic Status. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we recruited 182 Women aged 18 to 65 years from Eastern Nepal. Sociodemographic variables were obtained from a semi-structured questionnaire and used to construct separate and aggregate indicators of Socioeconomic Status. The association of these indicators with Vitamin D Status was examined. We used serum 25(OH)D levels as a measure of Vitamin D Status and classified them as deficient (< 20 ng/mL), insufficient (20-29 ng/mL), and sufficient (30-100 ng/mL). Results: Median serum 25(OH)D was 18. 6 ng/mL (14. 3-23. 9 ng/ml). Of Women, 103 (56. 5%) had serum 25(OH)D < 20 ng/ml, 61 (33. 5%) had 20-29 ng/mL, and 18 (9. 9%) had ,30 ng/mL. The association between Vitamin D Status and socioeconomic indicators was assessed using the chi-square test or Fischer's exact test, showing a significant association with total household income per month (P = 0. 006) and income to poverty ratio (P = 0. 005). Conclusions: Women living in low-income houses and poverty have a higher prevalence of vitamin D deficiency.
