Is Hemoglobin Level Of 9 A Cause For Concern?
Hello, As of now include more iron-rich foods in your diet like green leafy vegetables and fruits. Iron supplements like livogen can be tried. If the hemoglobin is falling, the detailed evaluation may be required including a peripheral smear and bone marrow. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
