Adjusted model includes all variables in Table 2 plus sine/cosine for first and second harmonics, current BMI >35 kg/m2, smoking with interactions with the first harmonic, indicator for very low D intake with interactions with first harmonic, college education, interaction between smoking and first harmonic, continuous melanin, and quartiles of dietary vitamin D intake and parity. We provide β estimates for all variables (Supplemental Table 1).

b

Estrogen containing contraception includes: combination birth control pills, contraceptive patch, or vaginal ring.

c

Supplement use based on highest reported dose/frequency on Food Frequency Questionnaire, or questionnaire at time of blood draw about use within either last 24 h (regular use) or past 4 weeks (irregular use).

d

Low-dose supplement: vitamin D content < = 200 IU/d or self-report of using single supplement irregularly.

e

Intermediate-dose supplement: vitamin D content 201–600 IU/d or using multiple supplements irregularly or a single supplement regularly.

f

High-dose supplement: vitamin D content 601+ IU/day or using multiple supplements daily.
