During an infection, serum levels of iron can increase as a result of the body's immune response. Inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6, stimulate the liver to produce hepcidin, a hormone that regulates iron homeostasis. Hepcidin can inhibit iron absorption from the gut and trap iron in macrophages, leading to increased serum iron levels. This rise in iron may be part of a complex strategy to support immune function and combat pathogens, although it can also contribute to iron overload in some cases.
Absolutely.
You can get an infection with or without the IUD. Expulsion of an IUD doesn't increase the risk of infection.
No drinking vodka will not increase iron levels. To increase you iron levels try eating red meat, iron rich cereal, clams or oysters, a potato with the skin on, spinach, chick peas, beans or watermelon.
an infection would most likely increase activity in what tissue
No, using a cast iron skillet does not increase the risk of cancer.
Macrophages are connective tissue cells that are part of the immune system and are likely to increase their activity during an infection. They function by engulfing and digesting pathogens to help eliminate the infection.

ADD MORE IRON
To increase iron levels in soil, you can add iron-rich fertilizers or amendments such as iron sulfate or iron chelates. Additionally, maintaining proper soil pH levels and improving soil drainage can help enhance iron availability to plants.
They increase. A normal level is around 10 for a white blood cell count, but this can increase to hundreds in cases of severe infection.
