For now take 60k per week of calcirol for 8weeks.
But D3 values under 10, better go for inj ARACHITOL 3L units intramuscular once and later continue calciferol.
You got too many advices, just continue calcirol for now

There is association of decreased vitamin d level with hypothyroidism.. You need to start weekly tablet of Cholecalciferol 60k Units for 8 weeks to start with..
