Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

The best supplements to help boost your hemoglobin levels are the following:

+Vitamin C
+Vitamin B complex (maiy B6 and B12)
+Iron
+Folic acid

Some doctors recommend a multivitamin complex that has enough of the above mentioned supplements in 1 pill, but most doctors prefer separate pills for each of these nutrients; so discuss with your doctor or go for the second option ma'am.

I hope you find my response helpful and informative. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.
