We reviewed and selected recent literature regarding menopause-related conditions associated with vitamin D deficiency and interventions to manage them.

“…More than 75 million people worldwide suffer from osteoporosis, 80% of whom are postmenopausal women, and there is a direct link between estrogen deficiency and the development of osteoporosis 20 , 21 . Postmenopausal women are of particular interest as they have a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency 22 . In that sense, it would be useful to develop a simple new device that raises blood vitamin D levels for postmenopausal female patients with osteoporosis.…”

“…Quantidade Como relatado anteriormente, a suplementação com vitamina D tem sido utilizada como alternativa para mulheres na menopausa, uma vez há uma redução acentuada deste micronutriente nesta etapa da vida feminina (Lerchbaum, 2014;Chedraui & Pilz, 2020). Assim, considerando a possibilidade da ocorrência de outras doenças, é de extrema importância que novas alternativas terapêuticas sejam avaliadas, como é o caso da suplementação exógena com a vitamina D.…”

“…Na fase da pós-menopausa, uma das importantes mudanças no organismo feminino corresponde às alterações nos níveis de vitamina D. A diminuição deste nutriente é considerada um problema de saúde pública, seja no climatério, seja em outras patologias, tendo em vista a alta prevalência mundial. Além disso, tal redução pode ainda contribuir para a ocorrência de inúmeras doenças agudas e crônicas, incluindo o câncer, deficiência cognitiva, diabetes e doenças cardiovasculares (Pérez-López et al, 2012;Lerchbaum, 2014;Chedraui & Pilz, 2020).…”
