Haemoglobin levels during 9th month

2019-11-09 15:18:28
Hi All, I am 36 weeks 1 day pregnant. I am having thalassamia trait. My haemoglobin level is 8.3 and as per dr suggestion, I have taken blood transfusion of 1 unit followed by 1 iron injection thru IVR. Can you please confirm how much haemoglobin level will now increase and in how many days so that I can cross check by doing CBC test.
