Kim recently wrote in to ask the Egg Whisperer this question, "Hi Dr. Aimee. I am 34 years old. Recently I was diagnosed as PCOS due to the number of follicles on my ovaries and my acne problem. Before I began my IVF journey, I was diagnosed with IBS (possible Celiac disease or gluten sensitivity that had yet to be confirmed), hypoglycemic, and severe vitamin D deficiency (13L). My question is, is there any correlation between IBS or Celiac disease, Vitamin D deficiency and hypoglycemic (fyi my BMI is 24 and I am not diabetic) and infertility? If so, should I postpone my FET on 04/30/21? What can I do to give myself a better chance of having a successful IVF if I do decide to continue with the FET?"
I share about the known relationship between IBS and PCOS, and information about some more recent studies about Vitamin D deficiencies. You'll want to tune in for the information.
