Default Low Vitamin D?

Can someone help me with my results?
Vitamin D, 25-OH, Tot 44 ng/mL
Vitamin D, 25-OH, D3 5 ng/mL
Vitamin D, 25-OH, D2 39 ng/mL

Free T4 1.21 ng/mL
Z-T3 (Triiodothyronine) 59 ng/mL
TSH 1.48 uIU/mL

I'd appreciate any help. I see my Endocrinologist on Friday for my regular PCOS check up. But she ordered these tests with the regulars.
Thanks!

The only one I know is the TSH. It's a test of your thyroid function and your result is in the normal range. I hope someone else can help you with the others!

Okay! Let's try to suss this out... please let me know if these links don't work for you and I'll try to fix them.

The first panel is, as you said, a measure of your Vitamin D levels. Here's a Google search to peruse about that, as there are varied opinions on what levels are "optimum":

The first test is a measure of your overall Vitamin D level, and from what I've read it looks good. The second test is a measure of Vitamin D3, and the third is a measure of Vitamin D2. Sadly I couldn't find values for those anywhere. I'd ask your doctor about those.

The second group of tests is a thyroid panel. Here's a link explaining those results:

As you can see, your T3 looks a bit low; but it also depends on exactly what type of test/assay was used. I'd give my doctor a call if I were concerned. It can't hurt!

Good luck hon Don't be afraid to call your doctor if you have any concerns at all! A good doctor appreciates a concerned and involved patient!
