Understanding Serum Ferritin in Ghaziabad


What is Serum Ferritin in Ghaziabad?

Serum Ferritin test measures the levels of ferritin in the blood and assesses the body’s capacity to store iron. It is available at an affordable price in Ghaziabad with Tata 1mg labs. Ferritin is one of the essential proteins that controls the absorption and release of iron in the body. A low ferritin level indicates an iron deficiency, while an excess might lead to hemochromatosis, which can cause organ damage. 

Your doctor may suggest Serum Ferritin test if you have symptoms suggestive of iron deficiency, such as weakness, pale or yellow skin, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, cold hands and feet, etc., or iron overload, such as joint pain, stomach pain, weight loss, gray skin color, etc. This test can also be advised in patients suffering from chronic infections, autoimmune diseases, liver diseases, kidney failure, etc. as increased ferritin levels can be observed in such conditions.

What does Serum Ferritin measure?

A Serum Ferritin test helps to detect how much iron is stored in your body. Ferritin is a storage protein that can store iron in a soluble or nontoxic form. Your body requires iron to make healthy red blood cells that are responsible for oxygen distribution from the lungs to other parts of the body. Whenever your body requires iron, cells release the required amount of ferritin.
