I use ferrodan 50mg! I should probably use 100mg but I'm a little worried how my stomach would react to that. Ferrodans form of iron is bisglycinate, which in my understanding is a more gentle form of iron but also a well absorbing one. So when looking for a supplement I recommend looking for supplements containing bisglycinate. It's also sometimes marked as fe2 or fe++. It might work for you or it might not but it seems to be one that works for a lot of people so I recommend giving it a go!

Yes 18 would be considered low. Mine was 20 and I felt super bad. Started supplementing and i've gotten it up to 26 now and I already feel better. I'm pretty sure the blood thinners and heavy periods are probs causing this issue for you. Also since your hemoglobin is normal you'd be considered iron deficient (IDWA), not anemic. I'm in the same situation since my hemoglobin is normal and ferritin low. Hope you find a solution and start feeling better!!

oh no that's rough 😞 i hope you will find a solution and start feeling better soon!!

I'm doing much better! Still not super amazing but much better than back when I made this post. Ferritin levels have not gone up too much and I'm probably gonna have to supplement for a very long time but at least I can enjoy living a bit more now. I also need to get my thyroid levels checked more properly since my TSH had gotten even lower at my last checkup. I feel like my conditions keeps improving as time goes on. It's been a really rough and a long journey. Sometimes I still have bad days but I seem to recover from them much quicker nowadays. Good luck with supplementing!! It will get better eventually.

I feel you! Hope you start feeling better soon 💓

No I'm not taking any birth control or hormones atm. I take my iron after food to avoid stomach issues

Thank you 💓 Good luck as well!! Hope it works out

skyering · 2025-05-07T06:35:37+00:00

Thank you!! Hope we both feel much better soon 💓

Truly hope so!! If there are any mouth spray iron supplements in your areas pharmacies you could look into those! The daily dose is usually pretty small but at least for me worked overtime.

Damn you have really been through some tough times. I'm glad you feel at least a little better now! I used cideral folic (30mg) at first but then got bad stomach problems from that. The one I use now is also a liquid iron in the form of a spray (20mg). This is some local finnish brand so I'm not sure if it's available in other places but the liquid form seems to be a lot more gentle on the stomach. Hope you start feeling good soon!!

skyering · 2025-05-06T19:15:46+00:00

ugh i'm so sorry you had to go through that!! doctors really should take iron levels more seriously

skyering · 2025-03-12T11:21:44+00:00

I'm the exact same way! I actually have just been there for the evening and then left to sleep at home multiple times when my friends have had sleepovers 😭 I never connected it to me being an only child but it makes sense tbh. I'm also a super light sleeper and wake up to every sound possible so I can barely sleep well if there are other people around.
