I always feel tired due to high ferritin levels. Kindly help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern. According to your statement, you have recently done serum ferritin and your level is 571.30ng which is very high. Your cholesterol and triglyceride levels are also high.

Common causes of high ferritin levels are obesity, fatty liver, inflammation, COVID-19 infection, daily alcohol intake, hemochromatosis, etc. And high ferritin level makes you exhausted, fatigue.

For lowering your ferritin level, you can follow these steps:

1. Avoid iron and Vitamin C contained foods and fruits.

2. Reduce iron-rich foods.

3. Avoid uncooked fishes.

4. Avoid alcohol consumption.

Follow the above mentioned steps and do repeat serum ferritin level three months later.
