Question

I'm really concerned about my wife's health because her vitamin D levels are super low; it's only at 8 when it should be around 40. Our doctor has prescribed her these vitamin D3 sachets, each containing 60,000 units. She's supposed to take one sachet a week for six weeks, and then after that, it's one sachet every two weeks for another six weeks. That seems like a lot to me. I'm curious if 60,000 units is too high of a dosage for her?

Question

I'm dealing with gynecomastia and just got back from the doctor. The tests say I have mild bilateral gynecomastia. I'm curious if there's a natural way to treat this. If surgery is the only option, how much would that cost? Would love some guidance here.

Question

I'm really worried about my vitamin D levels, they're really low at 7.6. I tried taking calciferol 60k, but it made me feel so sick with vomiting, severe restlessness, and even dryness and burning in my head and heart that lasted a while. Now, I'm managing to take Calcimax syrup, 5ml twice a day, but after each dose, I get heartburn and feel restless for 3-4 hours. I'm also on Polybin since my B13 is at 247, and luckily that isn't causing any issues. However, I once tried Astime syrup and ended up with a rash and swelling inside my upper lip. What should I do?
