Low iron

[Tiara192]

Do any of you ladies have low iron ? How is it affecting you

[Mrs_MP3]

Ladies, I don't know where you live, but in my walgreens they sell liquid iron...which I love because I'm no pill taker. It has better absorption and doesn't give me constipation. Try to see if you can find it.

Yes Vanessa8887, I'm also low in vit D and have to take 3 vit D tablets every day.
Defiantly noticed the constipation back - thinking it's the extra iron.

[Vanessa8887]

Very exhausted taken 27 mg everyday
But they said I was anemic I've had dizzy spells and cold sweats which in didn't know that was the cause
Plus my vitamin d is super low its 6 and should be at least 32 taken pills for that too. Hope we all get to feeling better

I get tired quickly, u can buy over the counter iron pills they will make u constipated more than likely tho

[Mrs_MP3]

Been anemic since my first appointment...Been on iron the whole time, makes me feel a lil better. My numbers had raised a little, but not enough to come off the iron. Other than fatigue, I feel no other effects.

[TH89]

Yes - I had my mwife appt the other week and my iron levels were ar 15 and in a month they dropped down to 4.
I''me on iron supplements now. I have been so incredibly tired and exhausted. Around 1-2pm I feel like I could sleep..but can't cz I'm at work D: mind you I'm almost 32w so it's also becoming tiring lol.
