21 Μαΐ 2024 · The results may vary slightly among laboratories, but in general, normal ferritin levels range from 12 to 300 nanograms per milliliter of blood (ng/mL) for males and 12 to 150 ng/mL for females. Normal ferritin test results vary depending on age and sex.
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).
But the normal ferritin levels, by age, are about: 24-336 nanograms per milliliter for adults assigned male at birth; 24-307 nanograms per milliliter for adults assigned female at birth
Higher than normal ferritin levels can mean you have too much iron in your body. Conditions that cause increased iron levels include liver disease , alcohol abuse , and hemochromatosis , a disorder that can lead to cirrhosis , heart disease , and diabetes .
10 Απρ 2024 · Normal ferritin levels range between 12 and 150 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) for females and from 15 to 200 ng/mL for males. These are equivalent units to micrograms per liter (mcg/L). Health organizations may use either one or the other units.
19 Δεκ 2023 · The typical range for blood ferritin is: For men, 24 to 336 micrograms per liter. For women, 11 to 307 micrograms per liter. Low results. Results that are lower than the typical range show iron deficiency. These results also can mean anemia. If your ferritin level is low, your health care professional will work to find the cause.
