Are Sleepiness And Tiredness A Symptom Of Low Hemoglobin?

I am always very sleepy. I do yearly blood test and a doctor said my haemoglobin is in low side, when I asked if any medication is necessary he said its not very low that I should undergo treatment. But I am sleepy all the time, get tired in 1 hr of working, keep yarning almost all day. Is this tiredness due to low haemoglobin?

Hi. While this could be an anemia problem, more likely it's a low thyroid problem and your doctor should run blood tests for that
