I take Iron supplements and have received iron infusions in the past. It was for about 6 weeks, every week for a couple of hours a week. I didn’t enjoy it but it made me feel better.

Blood doesn’t seem like the most sustainable source for anemic folks like me when there’s infusions and supplements you can take. Not to mention eating iron rich foods.
