Testosterone replacement can cause a decrease in ferritin in men even without the presence or use of blood donations or therapeutic phlebotomies. A study gave men testosterone enanthate at a dose of 125 mg per week (it also used T enanthate with or without finasteride to see the effect of blocking 5 alpha reductase while on TRT). These are the ferritin values after 3 months. Ferritin was reduced at an average of 32% within 3 months of treatment initiation without altering iron, transferrin, or transferrin saturation.

This is interesting. I would assume those of who frequently give blood on TRT to manage hematocrit are particularly vulnerable to low ferritin.

Had to like this because I'm at 120 mg Test-E per week.
