Jen Gunter Instagram – I wrote about a study that was published earlier this year, looking at iron levels and cognitive changes. As iron deficiency can cause symptoms like brain fog and fatigue, which are common in the menopause transition and early menopause. And iron deficiency and anemia are common in the menopause transition and early menopause, it makes sense to look to see if some of the symptoms reported by women could be related to iron deficiency and not menopause per se.
It’s a small study, but it’s one of the only ones we have. And the investigators did find that women with higher levels of iron, as measured by ferritin, or less likely to have cognitive concerns. Please head to my sub sack theagenda.com to read more. I also have a couple of other article articles there about iron deficiency and treatment. You can find them by googling Vajenda, iron deficiency, and menopause. And these articles are available for everyone to read. | Posted on 13/Dec/2025 23:37:13
