Help NEEDED!!!

[aussiettc]

hello ladies, i got some kinda bad news today. I have low iron levels. So much so that i have too take to iron tablets a day to try and increase my levels again. I'm also not really allowed to have tea, coffee, bran or anything with cafine in it because they all inhibit the uptake of iron in the blood.

Does anyone have any idea on how this may effect my chances to get pregnant or even what will happen when i get my ?

I have low iron too and am on iron tablets - you can still have tea but just not 2 hours before your tablets - and also drink orange juice as this helps you absorb.

It is vital for pg but you're doing the right thing and your levels will build up.

Also ask them to check your ferratin levels - this is your iron store so keeps your iron levels even - mine is low without the tablets and I often get periods of total exhaustion if my levels drop.

I'm not sure how it impacts conception tho - didn't stop me ( I was on the iron tablets when ttc the second time too )
