Could my iron supplement be causing weight gain?

[Hectorsmum2]

I have been gaining weight despite being very careful in what I eat since starting my gentle iron supplement. A google search has come up with very mixed results re this. Not sure what to believe.

Any advice?

I take gentle iron and I don't believe it affects my weight. My main issue is comfort eating when I wake up. I don't recall hearing any other reports that it affects weight.

Thank you. I have stopped it for a few days to see if that helps. I am very careful with what I eat and have been losing weight for a long time but am suddenly gaining after starting the iron. Answers are mixed re google but thanks for your reply.

I had an infusion and take oral iron supplements daily. I always have struggled with my weight, iron didn't change that. Iron did give me more energy.
