What Is a Vitamin D Test?

A vitamin D test is a blood test that measures the amount of vitamin D in your body. This simple test helps your doctor determine if you have vitamin D deficiency or, less commonly, vitamin D toxicity, both of which can affect your bone health and overall well-being.

Frequently asked questions

Find quick answers to the most common questions about health tests, bookings, and reports.

The recommended daily amount of vitamin D for adults is typically 600 International Units (IU). However, some people may need higher doses as prescribed by a doctor based on their deficiency levels and health conditions.

Vitamin D2 comes from plant sources and fortified foods, while Vitamin D3 is naturally produced in skin from sunlight and found in animal-based foods. Vitamin D3 is generally more effective at maintaining blood levels.

This specialised test is useful for individuals taking vitamin D2 supplements or those with complex deficiency cases. It helps doctors identify the source of vitamin D and monitor treatment effectiveness more precisely.

There's no specific best time of day for the test. Vitamin D levels remain stable in the blood. So you can provide your sample at any convenient time throughout the day.
