Increasing iron stores - how did you feel?

[TulipsTwoLips]

I have always suffered from low serum ferritin mainly due to heavy periods.

I've been prescribed ferrous glucomate as everything else made me constipated almost instantly. Even with these I'm finding that I can only take one a day. My ferritin level is currently 12.

I feel exhausted constantly with a lack of motivation, pale skin and increasing brain fog.

Has anyone successfully increased their levels, and did you miraculously gain energy and enthusiasm for life or am I just kidding myself that this is the solution?

I waited three months and mine rose from 6 to 40.

Mine are

In fact they just say mine is "undetectable" I'm going to follow the thread for tips and info

Thyroid might improve when iron is up, definitely try to aim for over 70.
