IRON DEFICIENCY
Concerned about low iron?
Iron is an essential mineral that helps your body produce haemoglobin and carry oxygen around the body. Low iron levels are common and can occur for a number of reasons.
Symptoms may include tiredness, weakness, reduced concentration, headaches or shortness of breath.
How we can help
Our doctors can assess your symptoms, medical history and blood test results to determine whether you have iron deficiency and what may be causing it.
Treatment options depend on your individual circumstances, including your blood results, symptoms and previous treatment.
Your doctor will discuss the most appropriate options with you and explain the benefits, risks and alternatives.
Could treatment be suitable for me?
Everyone is different, so treatment needs to be assessed on an individual basis.
Your doctor may consider:
-
- your symptoms and medical history
- your iron and blood test results
- the cause of your iron deficiency
- previous treatment and your response to it.
A consultation does not automatically mean that a particular treatment will be recommended.
Fees
A consultation fee applies for assessment and discussion of your treatment options.
