A member asked:
If 95%of the body's serotonin is produced in the gut then do gut perturbations eg bleeding or inf influence circulating serotonin levels?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible.: But don't believe they would be altered enough to be clinically important. Free serotonin levels are very low.
