At your level of hematocrit, every blood donation should remove about 3% from your Hematocrit, taking you down to 50% or lower. That’s in the good range and if your BP responds, you could be good to go with little change. You can donate with little risk to ferritin every 8 weeks as long as your BP doesn’t climb too high before each blood donation. There is some thought over time your body slows down Hematocrit and Hemoglobin production too. I think before I mess with an otherwise good regimen, I would try regular donations at 8 weeks.
