Can Iron supplements give you depression if they are not needed?


My younger sister was taking iron supplements for 3 weeks because she thought she might be pregnant. Turns out she wasn't. She takes a daily multi-vitamin/mineral, so that is why she only added iron. In her daily MVM there is 18 mg of iron and the supp contained 30 mg.

No, but they make your poop black
