A member asked:

Can i overload iron from ferrous furmarate 1 a day 3 mths as i havethalassemia trait.haemoglobin normal folate normal b12 ok.ferritin 12 range12-250?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Your ferritin is at the low end of normal suggesting that you have low iron stores. You should continue taking oral iron to replenish your iron stores. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine
