Wondering if anyone can relate or has knowledge... My vitD level has been tested and is 27ng, classed as 'adequate' or, depending on which research and which country's guidelines you read, is 'insufficient' (not optimal, or a 'sub clinical' deficiency) - American Vitamin D council and Endocrine Society classes under 40ng as actually deficient. Generally, a recognised deficiency is under 20ng.
I had my levels tested because I have joint and muscle pain, classic low Vit D symptoms (among others). I know that because I'm in peri-meno, this is also definitely a factor but I'm not convinced it accounts for all my symptoms. So im wondering if anyone who's had their levels tested and found to be in the 'insufficient' range (20-30ng), did you have deficiency symptoms, and did they improve with supplementation? Or am I just barking up the wrong tree 🤔 Thanks!
