Brief Answer:
Iron profile testing

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

I see there is no strong reason for your to be iron deficient.

There are many other conditions apart from iron deficiency to present the reports like that.

I would recommend a confirmation by getting a Iron profile test done. This ascertains the deficiency and also gives us clue into what dosage and what form of iron should be used as supplement.
