Severe vitamin D deficiency usually does not directly cause significant weight loss. Weight loss may be due to poor nutrition, illness, stress, or another underlying medical condition. Correcting vitamin D levels with proper diet, sunlight exposure, and medical guidance is important. Consult your doctor for a full evaluation to identify the exact cause and ensure proper treatment.
