Levels below 40 are common, common, common in midlife.
60 to 80% of women who are in postmenopause, who are postmenopausal, will expect to have a low vitamin D level.
So the cutoff for, you know, deficiency is 30 for vitamin D, but low is considered to be less than 60.
And in our clinic,
we are shooting for a 60 to 100 vitamin D level.
And it has been linked to weight gain, increased cancer risk, like lots of things.
And it's such a simple thing.
Most women do not know what their vitamin D level is.
So the next time you're in your clinician's office, make sure you ask for vitamin D and certainly if you're having hair loss.
Okay, number, we're on number four, vitamin B12.
B12 deserves attention.
particularly for women taking a GLP-1, I know many of you are, or that acid-producing medication like Omeprazole or PPIs, or if you're following a strict vegetarian diet or a low-meat diet, many clinicians like to see a B12 above 500 picograms per milliliter for optimal neurologic and cellular function.
Reasonable thing to check.
Okay, and then next is the CBC.
That is a really common lab.
Most of you will have it at your annual exam, at your well-woman exam.
It helps to rule out anemia.
It helps to rule out low platelets.
It looks at your white cells, your red cells, and your platelets and their distribution as well as their size.
If you're iron deficient, we tend to see the red cells shrink.
