I recently started taking iron pills for anemia, my appetite has decreased but I've started to gain weight...

Is this normal?

I also started working out more but I seem to be gaining weight more than I'm loosing any. Please help a frustrated woman!

Dont worry to much right now. The weight gain could be caused by alot of things.
Working out is honestly one of them... but dont stop.. Muscle weighs more then fat does so it makes sences that the scale says you weigh more
Any chance in your system can also effect the weight you gain or lose. So it could also be the pills but trust be you need those more then you need to loss a few pounds I am sure ( I have anemia as well and if I dont take my iron everyday I am to tired to function and do regular every day things. And I feel like **** LOL
Keep up the woking out and you should be back on track in no time

Iron deficiency anemia has nothing to do with weight gain or loss, unless it is a symptom of an actual disease, such as colon cancer. IDA is commonly has a nutritional cause. Iron tablets do not cause weight loss or gain.
