A member asked:

Can taking iron pills even though you are normal or not anemic anymore raise your platelet count ? ive been taking iron as i was anemic over a year ago from bleeding from a hiatal hernia and reflux which are now under control. platelets were 420k?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Iron deficiency, with or without anemia, is associated with elevated platelet count, Taking iron will not raise platelet count.
