Does anyone know why Hashimoto causes problems with Vitamin D and Iron? I just can’t seem to keep mine up and would like to understand why this is ?

Yes both extremely common when hypothyroid especially with Hashimoto’s
B12 and folate frequently too low as well
Low stomach acid is common with Hashimoto’s
Gluten and/or lactose intolerance common issues too due to leaky gut...again result of poor gut function

How low is vitamin D
How much vitamin D are you currently taking
Low ferritin is trickier. Important to always test iron and ferritin.
What’s your diet like, vegetarian or vegan?
