Should I continue taking the Orofer XT iron supplement or stop, given that my ferritin (iron storage) level was 95.5 four months ago and I have not had a follow-up blood test?

A ferritin level of 95.5 four months ago is a very healthy, reassuring number. Because your body stores iron over time, continuing your Orofer XT iron supplement without a recent check-up could lead to unnecessarily high levels. I warmly recommend pausing the supplement and speaking with your doctor about getting a simple follow-up blood test to check your current iron levels. This will safely determine if you still need the supplement or if you can maintain your levels through diet alone.
