At age 33, if you’re experiencing iron deficiency, low ferritin, dizziness, and low energy, it’s essential to find the root cause. Gut inflammation may impair iron absorption, so evaluation for malabsorption issues (like celiac disease, IBD, or H. pylori infection) is important. Start by consulting a gastroenterologist to assess gut health and nutritional deficiencies—cardiac tests may be needed only if you also have chest discomfort, palpitations, or breathlessness.

Investigation:
Complete Blood Count (CBC) – for anemia type
Serum Iron, TIBC, Ferritin – to monitor deficiency
CRP, ESR – to assess inflammation levels
Vitamin B12, Vitamin D3 – often low in gut-related inflammation
Stool Routine & Occult Blood – to rule out gut blood loss
Upper GI endoscopy – to rule out gastritis, ulcers, or H. pylori (if not done recently)
Based on the recent normal cardiac evaluations, it looks like your heart is probably not the underlying problem right now. If your gut-related inflammation and low iron have been identified with blood tests, addressing these could be the key to feeling better. The low ferritin you’ve mentioned suggests iron deficiency, which can indeed make you feel dizzy and low in energy. It might be best to focus on nutritional deficiencies rather than immediately jumping again to cardiac tests, unless new symptoms suggest differently. To manage iron deficiency, consider increasing dietary iron from sources like lean meats, leafy greens, beans, and fortified cereals. Pairing these foods with vitamin C-rich foods can enhance absorption. There are also oral iron supplements available over-the-counter, but checking with your doctor before starting an iron supplement is crucial. They will guide you on the appropriate dosage to prevent issues like constipation or other side effects. Meanwhile, your ongoing gut issues could be contributing to the suboptimal absorption of nutrients. Seeking advice from a gastroenterologist might help tailor a plan to reduce inflammation and improve your overall gut health. Monitoring your symptoms closely and keeping regular follow-ups with your doctor is important to track your progress and adjust treatment as needed. If there are immediate red-flag symptoms like severe abdominal pain, blood in stool, or syncope, seek medical attention promptly to rule out serious conditions.
