These symptoms might not just be related to Iron deficiency Also if only % of saturation iron is low but other parameters like Serum Iron and TIBC are normal then it is most probably insignificant
Next Steps
These symptoms can also be caused by Vit B12 deficiency so please get that checked also

Iron saturation refers to the amount of iron present in the blood. Iron is vital for many molecular processes, including muscle metabolism, oxygen transport, and the maintenance of healthy connective tissue.
