A member asked:
What to do if i have low ferritin with no other symptoms. should i worry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Why was the test done? Are you anemic? Low ferritin suggests deficiency of iron. Lab results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the test is usually in the best position to do that.
