Iron therapy....can you help... plz?

Question

In feb this year i found out that i am anemic. The doctor have put me on iron supplements for 3months, a month after that i have had another full blood count and ferritin test done. The result had no change so the doctor told me that he is going to put me on the supplements again for 3 months, if it hasn't change then i will get Iv iron therapy.The doc said the only problem is heavy periods, cause i was for a gastroscopy and a colonoscopy and they found nothing

My question is....

What exactly will they be doing with iv iron therapy?

how is it perform?

how long does it take?

How many times will I have to go a week?

How will they know if you are allergic to it?

If you are experiencing it please help me

No idea. That's the problem with going to the doctor. Your only think of all the questions you want to ask after you've walked out of the consulting room.
