[QUOTE="JimGainz, post: 215950, member: 19127"] Could it be that low ferritin has nothing to do with any symptoms and is just a measure of circulating iron - and for that matter, it’s better for it to be low? This is what my doc told me. My Ferritin ranged from 9-15 on the last two blood tests with high normal HCT and HB (I am on TRT and nandrolone). He told me not to worry but this guy was not a TRT doc. I was measuring ferritin because I had trouble staying awake at night past 8:30 pm but since increasing my thyroid dose I am doing much better. I used to give blood every three months and always felt great. I never had fatigue, consistently made gains in the gyms, slept very well and wake up 5 am every morning ready to go. So no apparent low Ferritin issues. I am going to try to raise ferritin through vitamin C supplementation so I can give blood again (I enjoy doing it and feel it’s beneficial in many ways) but I will be holding off on this to see how Ferrtin goes. I recently lowered my T and nandrolone dose and increased the frequency to EOD (25 and 20 mg of Test /Nandrolone) due to E2 issues and also to avoid having to donate too soon. [/QUOTE]
