A member asked:
Do i have iron deficiency anemia iron .total is 60 iron binding capacity is 307 saturation is 20 ferritin is 31?

You are at the beginning of iron deficiency with your iron on the low side and your saturation on the low side but the other two parameters normal. Any further decline and you will be deficient. Most likely you do not get enough iron in your diet which is very common for females your age. Taking iron supplements or eating more foods with iron is appropriate.
