    So glad I came across this. I was lacking vitamin d when I got blood work done last year and I started taking prenatals just right over a month ago. Research says that we should consume 2,000 IU of vitamin d as healthy adults. My prenatals have 600 IU so I took another gummy that’s all vitamin d. Guess I’m going to step up my vitamin game since I’m ttc! Let’s pray that we all get our positives!

    My daughter has been wanting a child for years, she just thought it will happen. Well she is now 26, doesnt ovulate (TCC, BBT) for over a year now. She has ovulated 3 times in that time, once with the help of clomid. I noticed that the prenatal vitamins only had 1K iu of vit d. The doc put her on Metformin thinking she might have PCOS. When I noticed the low dose of vit d, I advised her to take another 4K as I take 5K in vit d a day. When we went back to her doc a few weeks ago, I asked the doc to test her vit d but she wont. I mean why not!? Well when using the cheap LH strips, the test line was barely noticeable and now, even tho its its negative cz she is starting a new cycle after 6 weeks of bleeding, there is a def a line! Im thinking this might be the problem all along!
