Hi Sunil,
TLC is moderately reduced and is borderline. It could probably be due to reduced vitamin B12 and folic acid.
It is probably early stage of megaloblastic anemia, and thus supplemental vitamins maybe necessary.
If you have any history of infections recently, it could have caused it.
Improve your nutrition, with more protein in diet. It can also increase leukocytes count.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
