Is the level 9.7ng/ml of vitamin d for a girl that age 15 normal ? if not , what's the best way to be treated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is low.: The treatment is with oral vitamin D. Often a high dose (50,000 IU per week) is prescribed for 6-8 weeks to reconstitute the body stores, followed by 1,000-2,000 IU daily. If this fails, one has to consider malabsoprtion (intestinal problems causing lack of absorption of vitamin D).
