Lactoferrin And Iron During Pregnancy
« on: November 11, 2022, 06:24:49 AM »
Hey everyone, my Wife has Beta Thalassemia Minor and has recently became Pregnant. Does anyone know if Lactoferrin is beneficial and safe to take during Pregnancy with BTM? Also would taking an Iron supplement once a week be ok or is there still a risk of Iron overload? Thank you so much!

Lactoferrin is very safe and also can be very helpful. It's best if an iron panel can be done before tkaing iron. Iron is often needed by thal minors during pregnancy, but should only be taken as a supplement when the need is proven.

All we are saying is give thals a chance.
