| Summary: | The gallstone disease is a polyetiological pathology. From the literature data we have chosen for our research several risk factors that may lead to development of gallstone disease: diet, smoking, oral combined contraceptives, the number of pregnancies and the ways of fertilization as well as the family history of this disease. We have statistically studied 260 questionnaires filled by the women who had registered their pregnancies (in the period from 8-10 weeks). The results obtained confirmed association between the increased frequency of the gallstone disease because of a great number of pregnancies, or application of assisted reproductive technologies, oral contraceptives and family history but no link with smoking and with the body mass index. |
