If you are taking enough milk and dairy products calcium supplements are not required at your age unless it is actually deficient. Doses of vit d depends on whether patient is vit d deficienct or not. For prophylaxis dose is different. You can get vit d and calcium level done. Detailed prescription can be given after knowing reports and knowing if there is symptoms  of  deficiency
