The Iron Level Test measures the amount of iron in your blood. Iron is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in the production of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body.
Why is the Iron Level Test Important?
- Detecting Iron Deficiency: Helps diagnose iron deficiency anemia, a condition where there is a lack of healthy red blood cells due to insufficient iron.
- Monitoring Iron Status: Used to monitor treatment effectiveness in individuals undergoing iron supplementation or treatment for iron deficiency.
- Identifying Iron Overload: Detects high levels of iron, which can occur in conditions like hemochromatosis.
When Should You Get an Iron Level Test?
- Symptoms: If you experience symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, or dizziness.
- Risk Factors: Individuals at higher risk include menstruating women, pregnant women, infants, vegetarians or vegans, and individuals with chronic diseases.
- Routine Screening: May be part of routine blood tests or recommended during annual check-ups.
