So it's been around a week since I started taking 10000 IU of d3 daily and it seems that I have been getting more spots since this, and the only factor I can really contribute it to is the d3?

Is it possible that this could be happening? And if it is I am going to stop immediately

I don't really know if vit d can cause breakouts ??? I have been taking vit d for a few months and it has almost cured the constant muscle aches i used to get in my legs so i think it is great. I can't say i have really noticed much of an improvement in my skin but it has certainly not been worse. I have only been taking 1000IU though which is what it says to take on the bottle. 10000IU seems alot. Maybe you are taking too much? Have you been diagnosed with low vit d? That high level of dose might only be appropriate if you have a major deficiency.

Of course there is always the possibility the vit d is not what broke u out? I break out if i eat bread or sugar. Can u think of anything different you ate or put on your skin??

every time ive ever tried taking D3 supplimets i've broken out. i have no idea why. i just stick to sun bathing it's much more fun anyway :) if that's the only thing that's changed then yeah it definitely can be breaking you out!! i would stop taking it .

 

also 10,000 iu is A LOT to take in a suppliment. the RDA is somewhere between like 1-4 thousand i'm pretty sure.
