My ferritin was 31 a couple of weeks ago but I am very symptomatic. I’ve been taking Thorne’s iron supplement every other day 4 pills (100mg total) with lactoferrin and vitamin c. I’ve had no side effects, no constipation or stomach problems with this dose.
Would it be ok to up my dose to 5-6 pills ? What are the risks?
A guy that was not on the bus (saw him waiting outside as we were pulling into the bus stop) as soon as the baggage door was opened he grabbed the first suitcase and ran away before anyone realized it. I’m not even sure if anyone else noticed it happen, it happened so quickly. I got super anxious and scared to say anything but even if I did it would have been too late anyways because he was out of sight within 30 seconds.
Be careful! Try to put your stuff deeper in the back and watch out for sketchy people.
32 F, not on birth control. These are the symptoms I've been dealing for 7+ years:
Labs:
Hormones tested in the follicular phase:
From what I understand, I may have subclinical hypothyroidism causing low androgen activity which leads to my symptoms. I also have lowish ferritin. I only have access to private healthcare at the moment so I'm trying to be very strategic about how I approach it. I would love to talk to an endocrinologist but I'm wondering if I should try to increase my ferritin, then retest to see if it lowers my TSH and helps my symptoms? Or is there no connection and I should just book an appointment with endo now? (it's quite pricey and I'll probably have to pay for all the labs again)
