One...@ babychase, yes you can ship sperm to India. One of the first things I checked, early on in this process.<br /><br />@C I don;t know how Vitamin D works. People are just starting to correlate this with fertility, it will be a long time before any mechanistic explanations are offered. Right now, they can just say that if you are low in this, you have a lower chance of success in IVF.<br /><br />As Shannon pointed out, this is a hormone, it can have any number of effects, in different settings.<br /><br />Interestingly, about 40% of women with PCOS are low in Vitamin D. There are many roads to PCOS I suspect, and maybe a vitamin D deficiency is one of them, who knows?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15553205805046479504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57644621261583551.post-79219274368878224222010-12-24T22:24:24.735+05:302010-12-24T22:24:24.735+05:30I'm glad to hear that your AFC count doesn'...I'm glad to hear that your AFC count doesn't point to a DOR.
