Specific thresholds for ferritin are used to detect iron deficiency and overload in different age groups. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 42% of children less than 5 years of age and 40% of pregnant women worldwide are anaemic.

The most commonly used thresholds of serum ferritin concentration to diagnose iron deficiency in studies of iron and/or micronutrient supplementation in pregnant women were <12 μg/L (35 studies) and <15 μg/L (17 studies).
21 Απρ 2020 · This guideline provides global, evidence-informed recommendations on the use of indicators for assessing a population’s iron status and application of the use of ferritin concentrations for monitoring and evaluating iron interventions.
11 Οκτ 2021 · The World Health Organization (WHO) recently recommended ferritin thresholds of less than 15 μg/L (adults) and less than 12 μg/L (children) for the diagnosis of iron deficiency, but these thresholds were based largely on expert opinion along with historical studies correlated with absence of bone marrow iron stores. 1,2
9 Αυγ 2023 · A ferritin concentration exceeding 150 µg/L in menstruating women and 200 µg/L in men and non-menstruating women who are otherwise healthy may indicate a risk of iron overload (conditional recommendation, based on previous WHO recommendation).
5 Αυγ 2024 · These results provide a basis for health system-level evaluation and benchmarking of ferritin testing in high-resource settings and call for a harmonization of diagnostic criteria for iron deficiency in primary care.
