Iron monitoring of male and female rugby sevens players over an international season

description Given the likely influence that high training loads, contact-induced hemolysis and female-specific requirements have on the incidence of iron deficiency, characterizing the direction and magnitude of fluctuations in iron status over an international season is important for managing player health and physical performance in rugby sevens. Australian national male (N.=27) and female (N.=23) rugby sevens players undertook blood tests at pre-season, mid-season, and end-season. Hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), ferritin, transferrin and transferrin saturation were quantified. Female athletes also reported oral contraceptive use and a subset (N.=7) provided 7-day food diaries to quantify iron intake. Male players typically had a three-fold higher ferritin concentration than females. Pre-season ferritin concentrations in male (151±66 µg/L) and female (51±24 µg/L) players declined substantially (~20%) by mid-season but recovered by end-season. Over the season 23% of female players were classified as iron deficient (ferritin
