Is Hereditary
Hemochromatosis Rare?
No — but it’s treated like it is.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) is the #1 genetic disorder in the U.S., UK, Ireland, and Australia. It’s most common in people of Northern European descent, but it’s not limited to that population.
Recent studies and clinical reports are identifying cases across France, Germany, Italy, and Spain — it’s underdiagnosed, not uncommon
The myth of rarity has delayed diagnosis for millions. It’s time to change that

- Abdominal pain
- Nausea
- Brain fog
- Mood changes or personality shifts

Signs You’re Being Dismissed — You’re not crazy, you’re not being tested!
- Doctors are completely unfamiliar and think HH is rare, so they don’t test.
- Your symptoms are not taken seriously, or brushed off entirely
- You're told “your labs are normal” without a full iron panel
- Your having Liver issues and your Dr. thinks it’s alcohol, when it isn’t.
- You're offered antidepressants instead of real answers
- Your symptoms are labeled as “in your head” or "just anxiety"
- You’re sent for unnecessary surgeries or misdiagnosed repeatedly
- No one tests you for HH — even with existing liver issues, diabetes, or heart symptoms
- Neurological symptoms: brain fog, tremors, memory loss, or balance issues.
You know something is wrong. But you’re not getting answers. Trust your gut. Question everything. You know your own body.

If you are having any of these symptoms, please get a full iron panel and make sure it includes FERRITIN. That is the first step. If your ferritin level for women is over 200 and 300 for males your next step is a DNA test. Hemochromatosis is a mutation in the HFE Gene, the two most common are C282Y and H63D. Remember Dr.’s don’t know everything. You can get your own test done inexpensively. Do not end up having unneeded surgeries, that is very common. If you have Hemochromatosis your body does not get rid of excess iron and it feels like you are being poisoned because you are. Your iron will start to store in your organs, liver, pancreas, heart, and joints. We all know arsenic is a poison, it’s also a metal, just like iron. Too much iron can also lead to death.
