    What Happens If Ferritin Levels Are Too High?

    Excessively high ferritin levels may indicate iron overload, inflammation, or conditions like hemochromatosis. This can lead to organ damage, particularly in the liver, heart, and pancreas, resulting in symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and abdominal discomfort. High ferritin is also associated with increased oxidative stress, potentially exacerbating chronic diseases. Treatment options include phlebotomy (blood removal), iron chelation therapy, or addressing the underlying cause.
