A 2020 World Health Organization guideline states that ferritin indicates iron deficiency below 12 ng/mL in apparently-healthy children under 5 and 15 ng/mL in apparently-healthy individuals of 5 and over. [31] Some studies suggest that women with fatigue and ferritin below 50 ng/mL see reduced fatigue after iron supplementation. [32] [33]
Mitochondrial ferritin is a ferroxidase enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FTMT gene. [5] It is classified as a metal-binding protein which is located within the mitochondria. After the protein is taken up by the mitochondria it can be processed into a mature protein and assemble functional ferritin shells.

serum ferritin [4] bone marrow examination (rarely) [4] Note: Iron therapy must be suspended 48 hours beforehand to ensure valid test results. [4] The normal range for hemoglobin is 13.8 to 17.2 grams per deciliter (g/dL) for men and 12.1 to 15.1 g/dL for women. [6] Low hemoglobin indicates anemia but the individual will be normal for LID.
