A low ferritin level with a high iron saturation can be indicative of a complex situation and may require further evaluation by a healthcare professional. Ferritin is a protein that stores iron, and low levels of ferritin suggest reduced iron stores in the body. On the other hand, high iron saturation may indicate an abundance of iron in your blood at a given moment. Supplementation should not be initiated without a thorough evaluation by a healthcare provider, as excess iron can be harmful. They can help determine the underlying cause of these findings and guide you on whether or not iron supplementation is necessary, based on your specific health and nutritional status.
Oh my God every time t everytime I wash my hair and I can actually make a bird's nest with all the hair that falls off my hair 😭 I have tons of itchy skin dry skin really nauseous and dizzy then when I get my PMS I cannot get out of bed I'm always late headache and really busy and my stomach hurts so😊 distance to test that I have to get done or what is it so I can have my primary care doctor do his blood work immediately
A ferritin level of 351 is slightly elevated above the normal range; it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and potential treatment.

Is 6.30 ferritin low? I'm facing extreme hairfall. My Vitamin d3 is 6.11 and ferritin is 6.30. I know vitamind d3 is quite low but sure about ferritin. Somebody please reply. Thanks.
Good luck! I hope the pills work for you. My ferritin was 7, I've been on Vitron C for 2 years and my ferrtin shot up to 45 but has since dropped to 23. While that is technically in the healthy range, I still have all the symptoms of low iron and my doctor wants my ferrtin up to 70. BUT since we can't figure out why its low in the first place I'm kind of screwed.
definitly not ... people with high ferretin looks normal,healthy.. But go and consult your doctor ... Actually yours is not that high .. It's high .. There are people with 1000
A ferritin level of 2 ng/mL is exceptionally low, as normal ranges typically fall between 20 and 500 ng/mL. Ferritin is a protein that stores iron, and low levels may indicate iron deficiency anemia. Symptoms of low ferritin can include fatigue, weakness, and pale skin. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional who can interpret your complete blood count (CBC) and other relevant tests to determine the underlying cause of the low ferritin and recommend appropriate treatment, which may include iron supplementation or addressing any potential dietary factors contributing to the deficiency.

What does it mean if ferritin is low but iron saturation is high? I'm confused about whether to supplement or not.

Thank you so much its too much useful

Thanks a lot.
Hi what does high ferritin and b12 mean? with normal iron
Could taking Iron cause a high ferritin level? Especially if post menopausal and possibly with rheumatoid arthritis.
Hope you got checked. But yes. Taking iron can cause high ferritin. That’s what happened to me. Definitely worth a checkup

20 may be within “normal” range but it’s still too low. Should be at least 40.

Given your ferritin level of 3, it's advisable to consider iron infusion therapy to replenish your iron stores and improve your health ❤️.
