Low vitamin D levels may link to a woman’s inability to conceive.  A recently published Chinese study analyzed 154 women treated at a fertility center looking at vitamin D levels and the presence of toxic immune cells in their uterine linings.   Low vitamin D levels correlated with numbers of killer lymphocytes and scavenging macrophages in the endometrial linings of women unable to become and remain pregnant.  Vitamin D supplementation appears to reduce the populations of these immune cells present.   Women experiencing infertility should have their vitamin D levels checked.  If levels are low, normalization via food supplements or sunlight exposure may well improve the chances of a blessed event.
