Description
Review

This book provides a comprehensive and clinically relevant overview of vitamin D deficiency in pregnancy and osteomalacia, covering the subject from fundamental physiology to clinical management, rehabilitation, and public health perspectives. Developed with a multidisciplinary approach, it brings together insights from orthopedics, obstetrics, endocrinology, nutrition, physiotherapy, and public health, ensuring a holistic understanding of the condition.
The content is evidence-based, integrating current research, international guidelines, and clinical best practices, supported by illustrative case studies and patient experiences. Strong emphasis is placed on practical clinical application, including diagnosis, screening protocols, supplementation strategies, physiotherapy, and guidance on safe sunlight exposure during pregnancy.
A distinctive feature of the book is its special focus on osteomalacia, an often-overlooked condition, with detailed discussion on pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, pregnancy-specific implications, and rehabilitation strategies. Innovative topics such as yoga, physiotherapy, and the role of vitamin D in infertility further expand the scope beyond conventional management.
The book also highlights the public health dimension, emphasizing awareness programs, food fortification, and policy-level interventions. Structured into four clear sections, it is designed as a valuable reference for postgraduate students, residents, clinicians, allied health professionals, and public health policymakers.
