I tried to search the site but that feature is still offline.

Mine is 10. I know I don't have a GI bleed as I had a colonoscopy and EGD in April. I know it's low but is it way to low? I have an appointment on the phone on the 18th and wondering if there is anything I should ask about.

my brain has the dumb so I will need to write it down.

I had Uterine fibroids that would cause me to have very heavy menstrual cycles and I would only get maybe two weeks of no bleeding before it would start up again. It was a vicious cycle that went on for a good 6 years and in that time I had to have 3 iron infusions because my ferritin was as low a 4. A few years ago I had a hysterectomy and it changed everything. My ferritin has not once gone below 70 and depending on what supplement I take has been over 100. Might be something to look into.
