When to do vitamin d test
I am using vit d3 every month from past 4 months as prescribed by endocrinologist.I had done vitamin d test on 05/5/20 and my level is 48ng/ml (my endocrinologist adviced me to stop taking vit d3) but 15 days before test (20/04/20) i took vitamin d3 60000iu capsule (i think my endocrinologist is not aware of that) Does it effect test results? Do i need to test again? When to do test if i am using vit d3 tablet?

Hello.. U r taking monthly vit D 60000 IU.. That is maintainence dose for our body... Your level is 48ng/ml is well within limits.... There is no need to test for vit D unnecessarily...u won't achieve anything doing that.... Just keep taking vit D 60000 IU monthly that is enough!!! Don't worry!
