[QUOTE="ratbag, post: 82339, member: 972"] So I had her donate blood in an effort to reduce her ferritin. Her ferritin level just before blood donation was 433.5 and a few weeks after blood donation was 202. That is a change of 231.5 ug/L That's huge and I did not realise that ferritin drops so much after one blood donation. It's so much that anyone with normal ferritin levels may have to consider iron supplementation after a blood donation, or stay hypothyroid until your ferritin rises enough. Of course this is problematic for those trying to reduce HCT but those are the numbers. [/QUOTE]
