Your body is not absorbing the iron properly, or the excess may be colouring your poo. Try taking the tablets with fresh orange juice, as it helps the absorbtion. If you're worried, go and see your GP.

That how your stool should appear when you're taking iron tablets, so there's no need to worry. The supplement is also best absorbed with Vit C or orange juice.
