Environmental and climatic conditions are among the major factors influencing human physiological adaptation and health status. This issue is especially relevant in regions with unfavorable ecological conditions, water scarcity, and high seasonal temperatures. Northern Karakalpakstan represents one of such territories due to the environmental consequences of the Aral Sea crisis, hot dry climate, increased air salinity, and limited access to high-quality drinking water. These factors may adversely affect water-electrolyte metabolism and renal functional activity, particularly in women of reproductive age, whose physiological status is additionally influenced by endocrine and metabolic factors.
