What this test screens for
Understanding the Vitamin D
The Vitamin D Test measures 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH D, sometimes called calcidiol) — the standard blood marker clinicians use to assess vitamin D status. Low levels are common in Northern Virginia adults, especially in winter months when sunlight exposure is reduced. The test is $129 at our Chantilly lab, walk-in friendly, no fasting required.
Vitamin D matters for more than bone health. Low levels are associated with fatigue, depressed mood, muscle weakness, frequent infections, and slower wound healing. Deficiency is widespread: studies suggest 40% or more of US adults have insufficient vitamin D levels, with rates higher in winter, in adults with darker skin pigmentation, and in adults who spend most of their day indoors.
Optimal vitamin D levels are typically defined as 30 to 100 ng/mL of 25-OH D. Levels between 20 and 30 ng/mL are insufficient; below 20 ng/mL is deficient. If your level is low, supplementation with vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is straightforward and inexpensive — but the right dose depends on your current level, so testing first and re-testing 8 to 12 weeks after starting supplementation is the typical pattern.
Why people get this test
- Persistent fatigue, low mood, or brain fog (especially in winter)
- Muscle weakness, bone pain, or frequent stress fractures
- Pre-supplementation baseline before starting vitamin D3
- Follow-up 8 to 12 weeks after starting or changing vitamin D dose
- Adults who work indoors year-round or use sunscreen consistently
- Adults over 50 (vitamin D synthesis declines with age)
- Adults with darker skin pigmentation (lower vitamin D production from sunlight)
- Pregnancy planning or active pregnancy
What to expect
From check-in to results — what your visit looks like
Most visits take under 15 minutes. Here’s the full arc, start to finish.
How to prepare
No fasting required. Take any vitamin D supplements as normal — they do not need to be held before the draw. If you take very high-dose vitamin D (over 10,000 IU/day) for medical reasons, mention it at check-in so the result can be interpreted in context.
During your visit
A single small blood draw — one tube, completed in about 5 minutes. Most clients are in and out of the lab in 10 to 15 minutes total. Vitamin D testing is included in the Comprehensive Wellness Panel ($279) alongside CBC, CMP, lipid, A1C, thyroid, iron, and hormone markers — useful if you want a fuller picture in one draw.
Getting your results
The 25-hydroxy vitamin D result posts to your secure online portal in 24 to 72 hours, reported in ng/mL with the lab’s reference range. Most US labs target 30 to 100 ng/mL as the optimal range. We can fax results to any provider at no additional charge — useful if you want a primary-care or functional-medicine practitioner to recommend a specific supplementation protocol.

FAQ
Vitamin D Test — what people ask
Specific questions about the vitamin d test. For anything not covered, call 571-500-7030.
What is a normal vitamin D level?
Most US labs target 30 to 100 ng/mL of 25-hydroxy vitamin D as the optimal range. 20 to 30 ng/mL is considered insufficient; below 20 ng/mL is deficient; above 100 ng/mL is sometimes flagged as potentially excessive (though toxicity is uncommon below 150 ng/mL). Your physician can recommend a specific target based on your situation.
How long does vitamin D supplementation take to raise my level?
Most adults see meaningful increases within 8 to 12 weeks of starting a daily vitamin D3 supplement. Re-test at 8 to 12 weeks after starting or changing your dose so you can confirm the dose is sufficient. Levels stabilize in 3 to 6 months on a consistent dose.
Should I get vitamin D tested in winter or summer?
Either works, but winter testing usually reveals the lowest level of the year — useful if you want a true baseline. Many adults supplement through winter and stop or reduce in summer; testing both seasons over a year gives the most complete picture. Northern Virginia winters produce very little vitamin D from sunlight even on sunny days.
