“…Specifically, during these stages, calcium ions modulate the release of vital secondary messengers, including inositol trisphosphate (IP3) [33], cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) [34], and diacylglycerol (DAG) [35], which are essential for oocyte activation and its fusion with the spermatozoon [31,32]. In the early stages of embryonic development, a balanced calcium concentration is crucial for proper cellular division and the implantation of the embryo into the uterine lining [31,[200][201][202][203]. Consequently, an imbalance in calcium levels, whether due to a deficiency [204,205] or excess [206], can compromise fertility and reduce the likelihood of a successful pregnancy [207].…”
