Ferritin Test

Introduction

Ferritin is the main protein responsible for storing iron in the body, primarily found in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Serum ferritin levels reflect iron storage status and are crucial for assessing iron deficiency anemia or iron overload.

Why Take a Ferritin Test?

  • Anemia evaluation: Low ferritin indicates possible iron deficiency anemia.
  • Iron overload monitoring: High ferritin may suggest excess iron (e.g., thalassemia, repeated transfusions).
  • Chronic disease assessment: Ferritin can also be influenced by inflammation or liver disease.

Method & Workflow

A venous blood sample is collected to measure serum ferritin. Interpretation should be combined with serum iron, transferrin saturation, complete blood count, and clinical history.

Who Should Consider Testing?

  • Individuals with anemia or suspected iron deficiency
  • People with unbalanced diet, vegetarians, or malnutrition
  • Patients with thalassemia, chronic liver disease, or multiple transfusions
  • High-risk groups for iron metabolism disorders

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Does low ferritin always mean iron deficiency?
A: Most often yes, but confirmation requires serum iron and transferrin saturation tests.

Q2: Does high ferritin always mean iron overload?
A: Not necessarily. It may also rise due to inflammation, liver disease, or malignancy.

Q3: How often should ferritin be tested?
A: For anemia monitoring, recheck after 1–3 months of treatment; for chronic conditions, follow physician advice.
