Vitamin D Linked to IVF Success

Low serum levels of vitamin D may impair a woman’s chances of conceiving through in vitro fertilization (IVF), according to the results of a large, prospective, cross-sectional study.


In patients undergoing IVF, a serum vitamin D level of 20 ng/mL or more was associated with a significantly greater chance of obtaining 3 or more high-quality embryos and with successful embryo implantation and clinical pregnancy compared with lower levels, researchers report write in an article published online August 14 in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.
