I've been wondering about the best way to take a Vitamin D 60000 IU sachet. Should I have it on an empty stomach in the morning and if so, how long should I wait before eating? Or is it better to take it during meals or right after? Also, should I be mixing it with milk, water, or just my regular meals? And one more thing, do I need to mix the powder with a liquid, or can I just swallow the powder and then take a drink?

I'm really worried about my wife who's 15 days pregnant. Her TSH level is at 4.59 and I'm not sure if that's normal during pregnancy. If she starts taking medicine for it, could there be any negative effects after the pregnancy? Could you please advise on what's best for her health?
Your wife's TSH level of 4.59 is slightly elevated, but during pregnancy, the normal TSH range is wider due to hormonal changes. For pregnant women, the normal TSH range is: First trimester: 0.3-4.5 mIUL, Second trimester: 0.5-4.6 mIUL, and Third trimester: 0.8-5.2 mIUL. However, some studies recommend that the upper limit for TSH during pregnancy should be 2.5 mIUL
