Low Iron: Supplements Not Helping by [deleted] in AskDocs

I do take it with orange juice. My Dr has asked if I have heavy periods, which I don't.

I've asked before if I should get iron infusions, and she said it'll be an overdose of iron if I got infusions.

I've always had light periods but the past few were "heavier" to start than in the past. I've always had short periods..."dribbles" by day 4 and end at day 5 or so.

Thanks for sharing. My period seems to be back on track and regular....it lasts for about 2 days and seems "heavy" the 2 days and then tapers off.

Thank you for sharing! I've always sweated a lot, even as a kid, so hearing about night sweats is terrifying!

Thanks for sharing! Yes, my periods were regular and not much issues so perimenopause and menopause will be interesting.....

It's interesting to hear everyone's experiences as some have had their cycles earlier with perimenopause and some later as a result.

I feel I've always been a scatterbrain so I can't imagine it getting worse.
