Serum Iron : Humans regulate the absorption of iron equisitely to balance 1mg of daily losses. First make sure you are getting enough dietary iron. If your iron stores are being depleted you need a full anemia panel serum iron, ferritin, transferrin,TIBC, CBC. You need a full history and physical to determine where any blood loss is occurring. Oral iron and parenteral iron used to replete itSee MD good luck.
