Are There Any Specific Sun Lamps To Elevate Vitamin D Levels?
Yes, sunlamps should help
Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. Yes ma'am, there are certain specific types of sunlamps made to help elevate vitamin D levels, please speak to your doctor or the local pharmacy regarding the same as brands for these sunlamps vary from one country to another.
Also, I am sure you have made numerous dietary and lifestyle changes to help supplement your deficiency, but please also speak to your doctor about a hormonal approach. The main reason for low vitamin D levels in post-menopausal women is due to the reduced or complete absence of sexual hormones that play a vital role in absorption of vitamin D into the body. Supplementing those hormones can contribute to an increase in vitamin D levels as well.
I hope you find my response both helpful and informative, please do not hesitate to write back to me for any further help, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.
I am glad I could be of assistance
Detailed Answer:
Hi ma'am.
I am not sure how but sex hormones (which reduce around or after menopause) stimulate the conversion of vitamin D which our body uses up. Thus, the reduction in these hormones there is a reduction in the amount of vitamin D converted and available for the body to use.
Best wishes.
