[|Human|] I live in NZ. Is the iron count/recommended levels different for different countries? I had an iron count of 5 in February. Underwent an iron infusion. I didn t feel too bad at the time and not that much noticeable after infusion. Feel a bit tired again. Had iron level tested last week. 17. I am also waiting for thyroid result. My hair has been falling out consistently and now noticeably thinner. What is an acceptable level? Thank you.
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, The expected range of iron can differ slightly in different countries due to their traditional food habits.  Reference range of serum Iron in female is 7-30umol/L(SI units) or 40-170 UG/DL(traditional units).  As soon as you receive your thyroid reports, consult your physician with reports.  Thanks for trusting Chat Doctor and posting your query.  Hope you found my response to your query informative and helpful.  If you have further concerns in this regard, you can submit those with Chat Doctor as well.  With good wishes,
