The traps that quietly cost points

These are the point-loss patterns iHuman never tells you about. We map every one for this case.

Labs: low ferritin (most specific), low serum iron, high TIBC, low transferrin saturation
Microcytic hypochromic RBCs on peripheral smear — but MCV may overlap with thalassemia
Must investigate source of blood loss: menstrual history, GI bleed evaluation (occult blood, colonoscopy if age > 45)
Oral iron (ferrous sulfate 325mg) on empty stomach with vitamin C — recheck ferritin at 8-12 weeks
GI side effects common — if intolerant, switch to ferrous gluconate or IV iron
