Hello...... Microcytic hypochromic anemia is usually seen in iron deficiency ,,get her serum feretin level tested... She needs iron supplement .... You didn't mention her hemoglobin levels... Her hemoglobin should be around 12gm%.......thyroid need further tests like FNAC to know whether it's benign malignant. Consult general physician.
