Kindly share your reports and the I can advise you the correct treatment. Vitamin d is important for skeletal and nonskeletal health. Worldwide, vitamin d is predominantly obtained through exposure to uvb radiation in the form of sunlight and cutaneous vitamin d production. Latitude, cultural dress habits, season, sun avoidance, and sunscreen protection can all limit vitamin d production. Gastrointestinal, hepatic, and renal disease may be related to low vitamin d levels, but hypovitaminosis d most commonly results from inadequate intake. Hypovitaminosis d resulting from lack of uvb exposure is not easily corrected by dietary intake alone in the absence of supplementation. Food fortification with vitamin d is based on outdated recommendations for daily ai. Supplementation with 800 to 1000 iu/d of vitamin d or 50, 000 iu monthly is safe for most people.
