What is ferritin face - and does it really mean you have low iron?

Iron and ferritin work together to support your body’s ability to transport oxygen and maintain healthy red blood cells.


This is a companion discussion topic for the original article at https://patient.info/features/general-health/ferritin-face-signs-of-low-iron-or-viral-skin-trend

A little disappointed with article. There was no discussion about an iron infusion to combat low ferritin levels, how long post infusion the ferritin level increases, whether homeostasis kicks in following an infusion, what is considered excessively low and high values, how quickly the facisl symptoms disappear post infusion, the criteria for oral versus infusions, the causes of depleting ferritin levels etc.
