A member asked:
I am continuously found with calcium deficiency from past 2 yrs after delivery. can i continue calcium for a long time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES: however, get blood calcium levels checked every months or more frequently, depending on the results. I would also suggest getting Vitamin D levels and parathyroid hormone ( PTH ) and thyroid function studies.
