Find the underlying reason
The following conditions may lead to low iron levels, and your physician can help you determine the cause. The cure of the underlying reasons is essential in how to raise iron levels quickly.
Inability to Absorb Enough Iron: Sometimes, your body won’t absorb iron well, especially if you have an intestinal disease like Crohn’s or celiac or had intestinal surgery. Some prescription medications to reduce stomach acid might also interfere with iron absorption.
Exercise: Athletes have a higher risk of iron deficiency since exercising raises the amount of iron the body requires. Constant training leads to red blood cell production, and you lose iron through sweat.
Internal Bleeding: Medical conditions like stomach ulcers, polyps in the intestines or colon, and colon cancer can lead to intestinal bleeding. This, in turn, causes an iron deficiency. Using too many pain relievers can also lead to stomach bleeding.
