Am i considered iron deficient if i have slightly low ferritin levels but am not anemic?

How low. You could be iron deficient and not be anemic. It would have helped had you provided the actual results. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
