I recently got my blood test done, and my iron level came out to be around 19, whereas the normal range mentioned in the report starts from 65. It seems to be significantly low and vitamin d is also low..I need recommendation for suitable supplements for both.

The iron result is below the range you quoted, but serum iron alone does not establish the degree or cause of anaemia. The blood count, iron stores and the exact vitamin D result help guide treatment. Selecting a supplement and dose safely also requires your history and any existing treatment.
Next Steps
Please have the complete reports reviewed by a physician. Mention heavy periods, other bleeding, diet and digestive symptoms so that the cause can be addressed as well as the deficiency.
Health Tips
Do not start high-dose injections or combine multiple supplements yourself. Seek urgent care for fainting, chest pain, breathlessness at rest or significant bleeding.

An iron level of 19 against a normal range starting around 65 points to clear iron deficiency, and low vitamin D often comes along with it, especially with limited sun exposure in a desk job. In a young woman, heavy or frequent periods are a common contributor worth mentioning to whoever treats you.
Next Steps
Iron-rich foods like spinach, jaggery, dates and red meat help, but a level this low usually needs an oral iron supplement and a separate vitamin D supplement for several weeks to months. Your doctor can choose the right strength and duration based on how low your stores are.
Health Tips
Please see a general physician or gynaecologist to start the right supplements and check for a treatable cause such as heavy periods.
