Why Does My Iron Keep Dropping?

You’ve worked on your iron intake, yet your stores keep falling. Celiac disease is one possible reason iron can be hard to absorb, even with few digestive symptoms. This combination rechecks iron status and screens for celiac while you’re eating gluten. Your clinician can also look for sources of blood loss.
