I am 32 weeks pregnant, having alot of palpitations and shortness of breath.i have done a blood test and my ferritin level is 7. would you advise an iv iron drip or iron tablets supplement?

See your Dr : Hopefully you can get an appointment with your Dr as soon as possible. A good prenatal vitamin and additional iron tablet is usually recommended, but your Dr should supervise how much to take, and when to repeat your blood test. A good history and physical may also help determine WHY you are short of breath - You may need to rule out malaria also, if you have traveled to rural areas outside Durban
