Find the cause for low hemoglobin. If it is iron deficiency or B12 deficiency or any other reason. If it is nutritional deficiencies then you need not do blood transfusion. Only medicines will help. Blood transfusion has it's own set of risk and complications. It is to be transfused under supervision of doctors.
