29 weeks pregnant.

I’ve got an underactive thyroid and low iron, I’m on daily medication for them both.

1 midwife told me to take my iron first on an empty stomach with some orange juice, then wait 2 hours, eat and take my levothyroxine medication.

Another midwife told me to take my levothyroxine first, wait 4 hours then take my iron.

I’ve been taking iron everyday now since 8 weeks and my ferritin levels just keep dropping. My iron levels themselves are fine, but my ferritin is low.

Help me out anyone who’s on both of these medications and how they work it?
