All patients diagnosed with uterine fibroids who come for consultation, will be explained the protocol and if they agree to be part of it, an informed consent will be given and a 3 ml sample of venous blood will be taken.

The sample will be analize in a COBAS 6000 ANALYZER SERIES model c501 (by ROCHE) and the reference levels will be:

1-25 ng/mL - DEFICIT 25 - 30 ng/mL - INSUFFICIENCY \> 30 ng/mL - Normal

For this study, the qualitative variables will be expressed as frequencies and percentages (%); the quantitative variables will be expressed in means ± standard deviation. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency at baseline will be calculated using the formula (total cases observed with vitamin D deficiency / total of patients included) X 100.
