This explains where oestrogen fits in..maybe increases the no of vitD receptors that drives the uptake of calcium into blood(I think it's saying) ..makes sense. I found increasing oestrogen increased my calcium blood levels slightly(doubt if significant though)..still low normal range

"Estrogen and 1,25(OH)2D3 appear to have common activities in the intestine. It has been shown in animal studies[75] that estrogen stimulates the expression of the 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor that drives the calbindin-mediated transport of calcium across the intestinal epithelial cells. It is possible that the negative effect of vitamin D deficiency on the bones of aged patients is enhanced by this lack of estrogen-dependent expression of the 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor."
