chosen.content: Firstly, let's think about why you're having fatigue. It might be because of a thyroid problem. Thyroid issues can lead to low energy. You should definitely get a blood test to check if it's the TSH or something else. If you want to find out more about your thyroid function, you should also get tests for Free T3, Free T4, and the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Your doctor might also recommend a thyroid ultrasound to check for nodules on your thyroid gland.
  If it turns out that it's not your thyroid causing trouble, there are other possible reasons. Could be anemia. You need iron to make red blood cells, but if you need to replace iron supplements regularly, it might be because your body isn't absorbing iron properly. You should go down to your nearest specialist for an iron absorption test. You need to take 100mg ferrous sulfate with orange juice on an empty stomach and come back to have your blood drawn. If your ferritin is normal, then the iron pills probably aren't helping your iron stores much. You might need to switch to a different supplement.
  There are a few other possibilities. If your body has too much sugar in the bloodstream, it uses up your body's iron reserves to help move the glucose. This is called non-anemic iron deficiency. There's also hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), which means you absorb too much iron from food. You can get tested for this with genetic testing.
  It's important to get checked to see what's going on with your digestion. If you have anemia from not being able to absorb nutrients properly, there could be ulcers in your stomach, a bleeding tumor in your colon, or celiac disease. There are a bunch of things that could cause these kinds of problems.
  You should probably see a gastroenterologist. They will probably do endoscopy and colonoscopy to look for the source of bleeding. It's important to check if there's cancer in your intestines.
  If you don't want to wait to get diagnosed, you can eat foods rich in iron like lentils, clams, oysters, tofu, turkey, and beans. Spinach has lots of iron, but your body absorbs it poorly. The most important thing is to make sure your diet is healthy, so that your body can function at its best.
