PCOS and Vitamin D

January 12, 2012 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

Vitamin D Deficiency Associated with PCOS

 

O1This observational study included 52 Scottish women, 25 of whom had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), who were tested for serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations. Vitamins D concentrations less than 25 nmol/L were classified as severe vitamin D deficiency. Severe vitamin D deficiency was found in 44% of women with PCOS and 11.2% of controls. In the PCOS group, vitamin D levels correlated negatively with body mass index, C-reactive protein and free androgen index and positively correlated with quantitative insulin sensitivity check index, HDL and sex hormone binding globulin.

 

Metabolism. 2011 May 5. [Epub ahead of print]

Vitamin D deficiency is common and associated with metabolic risk factors in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Does this mean that by adding vitamin D we can treat PCOS?  Not necessarily.  But with how easy it is to supplement with vitamin D, I don’t see why we wouldn’t add it to the regime.

Is it to egotistical to enjoy photo shoots? Who Is it to egotistical to enjoy photo shoots? 

Who cares?! Do the things you love if it’s not hurting anyone. 

I love spending my day getting pretty and hanging out with awesome people who are artists at their craft. And then I have fun photos to work with, and share along my journey, and for promoting the clinic as well. I see nothing wrong with it even if it is a bit self-serving. 😉
