I'm curious if switching from my regular Thyrofit 50 medication to homeopathy could possibly cure my thyroid problem for good. I've been dealing with this for about 4 years now. Is a permanent cure really possible with homeopathy?

I've been told I have a Vitamin D level of 12 ngml. I'm currently using Calcerol sachets as a supplement once each week. Is this the right choice, and how long should I continue with it?
Your Vitamin D level is low at 12 ngml. Taking Calcerol sachets once a week is a suitable supplement to increase your Vitamin D levels. You can continue taking Calcerol sachets once a week for at least 8-12 weeks to see an improvement in your Vitamin D levels. After that, your doctor may recommend a maintenance dose to keep your Vitamin D levels within the normal range.
