    Red blood cell?

    About two weeks ago I gave blood, they said my iron was high at 19.3. Yesterday my son and myself saw the bloodmobile and they were advertising free movie tickets. So I said let's go give blood. I completely forgot I just did it a few weeks ago. Anyway my iron was at 19.4. So I had them take double red cells that brought my iron down to 14.6. They said I had to wait 4 months to do it again. My question is, if in two months my iron is back up in the 19 is it ok to do it? I guess I should say I am on trt

    you don't have to volunteer any information, only answer the questions asked. why is your hemoglobin high, are you blasting or just TRT dose, and what is your TRT dose?

    Do it as much as you need, if your hemoglobin is high.
    But blood banks have a mandatory waiting period, so it's not like you can do it weekly or even monthly.
