HHHK 477: Iron Levels, Pregnancy & Why Maltofer or an Infusion Isn't the Answer with Steph Lowe
In today’s episode we turn the tables and Solaine interviews me on a much awaited topic – low iron, pregnancy and why Matlofer or an iron infusion isn’t the answer. We explore the role of iron in pregnancy, the importance of haemoglobin, our misdirected obsession towards ferritin, the problems with conventional pathology reference ranges, my concerns with Maltofer, Ferro-grad C and high saturation, all about hepcidin, iron infusions plus what you can do and so much more.
