2. Latent iron deficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_Iron_Deficiency

   The ideal is to increase the body's iron deposits, measured as levels of ferritin in serum, with the aim of reaching a ferritin value between 30 and 100 ng/mL. Another clinical study has shown an increase in ferritin levels in those taking iron compared with others receiving a placebo. [11]

3. Iron overload - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_overload

   [34] [35] [36] In premenopausal females, normal range of serum ferritin is between 12 and 150 [34] or 200 [35] ng/mL (330 or 440 pmol/L). [36] In those with hemochromatosis, the serum ferritin level correlates with the degree of iron overload. [7] Ferritin levels are usually monitored serially in those with hemochromatosis to assess response to ...

4. Human iron metabolism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_iron_metabolism

   Iron can be stored in ferritin as ferric iron due to the ferroxidase activity of the ferritin heavy chain. [28] Dysfunctional ferritin may accumulate as hemosiderin, which can be problematic in cases of iron overload. [29] The ferritin storage iron pool is much larger than the labile iron pool, ranging in concentration from 0.7 mM to 3.6 mM. [25]

   There’s a few different routes that can be taken to restore healthy iron levels in the body. Choosing the right treatment will depend on the cause of the iron deficiency, and whether there are ...

6. Transferrin saturation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transferrin_saturation

   Transferrin saturation (TS), measured as a percentage, is a medical laboratory value. It is the value of serum iron divided by the total iron-binding capacity [1] of the available transferrin, the main protein that binds iron in the blood, this value tells a clinician how much serum iron is bound.

   The female body has estrogen receptors almost everywhere, Garrison explains, so, as estrogen levels begin to fluctuate during perimenopause, then drop after menopause, the impacts can be far-reaching.

9. Blood lead level - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_lead_level

   Blood lead level (BLL), is a measure of the amount of lead in the blood. [1] [2] Lead is a toxic heavy metal and can cause neurological damage, especially among children, at any detectable level. High lead levels cause decreased vitamin D and haemoglobin synthesis as well as anemia, acute central nervous system disorders, and possibly death. [3]
