Ferritin 1387

High Ferritin level of 1387 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal ferritin level of 1387 reflects your body's iron stores. An abnormal ferritin level of 1387 may suggest iron overload conditions like hemochromatosis, or it may rise in inflammation, chronic disease, or liver disorders. Interpreting ferritin alongside other iron markers provides a clearer picture of your iron status and helps detect conditions such as anemia or iron deficiency. There are several treatment options, but the first and most important step is to change your diet immediately.
