What causes high ESR and low Transferrin saturation?

High ESR and low Transferrin saturation can be caused by many reasons.

If your ESR is in between 0.1 mm/hr and 14 mm/hr and your Transferrin saturation is in between 13 % and 45 % then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for ESR and Transferrin saturation respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.

Normal range of ESR : 0.1 - 14 mm/hr

High ESR and low Transferrin saturation can be caused by a lot of reasons. If you take ESR and Transferrin saturation blood tests and the results are higher than 14 mm/hr for ESR and lower than 13 % for Transferrin saturation, your physician may recommend more tests to figure out the problem. You might also get these tests if your physician thinks you have some other disease.
