I have high iron/higher saturation with supplementing iron but low ferritin. I can’t get my ferritin to increase. For the iron to go into my savings account. Do you know what could be the cause? I have so many symptoms it’s unbearable. 😢
This is more complicated than just those 3 markers. One potential issue is low copper. Copper is required for iron transport and a copper deficiency often presents as an iron deficiency. And taking iron does not correct the copper issue. Ask your doctor to test your serum copper and ceruloplasmin.
