I'm worried because my Vitamin D levels are really low, and my doctor prescribed me DRise 60000 IU. I'm not sure if I should take it with milk or water. The doctor didnt mention it. What's the best way to take this supplement?

Can take DRise 60000 IU with water. It is usually recommended to take Vitamin D supplements with water for better absorption. The usual dosage is once a week for 8 weeks, followed by once a month for maintenance.

I'm really confused about something and need your help. So, a couple of weeks ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS and my doctor prescribed me Metsmail and Chirocyst to take after meals. After just a week, I've already lost 2 kg. I've been trying to control my diet during this time, too. Do you think this weight loss is because of the medication or more likely because of my diet changes? I just want to understand what's really having more effect here.

I just got my blood test results back, and I'm a little concerned about a few things. My vitamin D level is 12.21 ngml, vitamin B12 is at 176 pgml, and uric acid is 7.6 mgdL. On top of that, my TSH is 9.06. Should I be worried about these levels? What do they indicate, and do I need to make any changes to my diet or lifestyle? Would appreciate any advice you can give!
