Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Black colored stool is quite common while on iron supplements. The cooler is due to iron metabolic product and nothing to worry in it. It will subside once you stop the iron supplements.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks.
