[quote=Anonymous]I tested low for vitamin D two years ago, before TTC. I started taking 5,000 I.U. (Country Life brand, available at Wholefoods, cheaper online) daily, and my levels went up to a healthy number. One effect I attribute to it is that the arthritic symptoms I had developed over the past few years went away. I hadn't heard about an effect on fertility, but for what it's worth, while we did not get pregnant naturally or through timed intercourse with injectibles last year despite good Vitamin D levels, we had success (twin pregnancy) on our first IVF this spring at age 39. I am now still taking 2,500 I.U. daily in addition to my prenatal. I believe the maximum recommended dose in pregnancy is 4,000 I.U. Good luck to everyone![/quote]
