After a series of routine blood tests and hormones they have shown that I am indeed post menopausal!!! No surprise there..

But they have also revealed low vitamin D levels. GP not prescribing anything, I already take alonduric acid weekly but guess I need to seek the sun.

Any suggestions on non oral supplements ? I have an ileostomy which can make absorption tricky sometimes.

There is a vitamin D spray, which is an oil that you spray under your tongue.  It also comes with vit K2 which is supposed to help.

I have been sitting on the back doorstep when the sun is out, having my morning cuppa with my sleeves rolled up.  Now is the time to start sunbathing!

Yes, having just done a quick search on here I see that Taz has recommended that one.

GP said to not wear makeup or suncream for at least 20 mins a day during the summer...eeek I shall look scary!!
