Ferritin Dropped by 100 points — this is the key concern. Ferritin reflects iron stores, and a sharp drop indicates your body’s iron reserves are declining even though your current hemoglobin is still normal. - Diagnosis (Ayurvedic): Raktapitta (low blood/iron), Agnimandya (weak digestion), Vataja Kabja (constipation) - Prescription: Lauha Bhasma – 125 mg with honey or warm water – once daily after food Ashwagandha Churna – 3 g with warm milk – at night Shatavari Churna – 3 g with warm milk – at night (can be combined with Ashwagandha) Triphala Churna – 5 g with warm water – at bedtime for mild bowel regulation Guduchi Satva – 500 mg twice daily – after meals (supports immunity and digestion) - Dietary advice: Iron-rich: jaggery, black sesame, spinach, beetroot, lentils, pomegranate Combine with vitamin C: amla, lemon, guava Avoid tea/coffee with meals - Lifestyle: Warm water in the morning Gentle exercise to stimulate digestion Duration: 6–8 weeks, then repeat ferritin test. Follow-up: Monitor for constipation improvement and any GI bleeding. Stop and consult if dark stools, abdominal pain, or other alarming symptoms occur.
