A member asked:

My ferritin is 9.2, hgb 11.6? and hct 35.4%...is this low enough to be classed as iron deficient anaemia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Both hemoglobin and ferritin are low enough to warrant a diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia. Please consult your doctor about your heavy menses and about increasing the dose of iron supplement.
