Your Hemoglobin is mildly low, you need not take any supplements at this stage, just increase the amount of iron rich foods in your diet & get the test done again in a month.
If any other complaints along with it, then consider getting a personalized consulatation.

It's surprising to see such low levels of iron in a male .
Yes you got to supplement but more importantly you should work with your doctor on finding root cause of this nutritional deficiency. Also nutritional deficiencies do not occur in-silo, infact you likely have many more nutritional deficiencies may be at subclinical levels .
Focus on holistic healthcare for sustainable healing and results

Before jumping into what should you do kindly let me know why did you get this test done in the first place ...
Was this found on a routine checkup or you have symptoms ( weakness, palpitations i.e., loud and fast heartbeats ,etc )
And only then it will be suitable to make changes in your diet as well as take any medications and supplements if needed ..

Good evening, As per your report there is a slight deficiency in your Haemoglobin, but no need to worry as of now. It's better to discuss if you are having any symptoms we could address according to that.
As of now try avoiding junk foods, and eat more green leafy vegetables, palak.
Next Steps
Try to maintain a healthy diet.
If you want medications then you can go with SYRUP HEMRICH 1TSP at night for one month and repeat the test.
Health Tips
we could discuss this in detail if you are facing any uneasiness.

Based on your reports, it appears you have a lower-than-normal hemoglobin level and serum iron deficiency. This can contribute to symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and reduced immunity. Improving these levels generally involves dietary changes and possibly supplementation.
Here are some initial steps you could consider:
1. Iron-rich Foods: Incorporate more iron-rich foods such as spinach, legumes, red meat, poultry, and fortified cereals into your diet.
2. Vitamin C: This vitamin helps in iron absorption. Pairing iron-rich foods with sources of Vitamin C like citrus fruits, strawberries, and bell peppers can be beneficial.
3. Avoid Tea/Coffee with Meals: These can inhibit iron absorption, so it’s best to have them separately from iron-rich foods.
4. Supplements: Iron supplements might be needed, but it’s important to follow the correct dosage as advised by a healthcare provider to avoid any side effects.
For a more tailored plan and possibly a prescription for supplements, I recommend connecting for a detailed consultation. Feel free to WhatsApp me at eight-zero-zero-nine-eight-two-one-three-three-two for better evaluation and personalized treatment options.
