I Am 48, Female. Being Treated For RA Since Last

I am 48, female. Being treated for RA since last 4months. Taking 10mg Methotrexate weekly, HCQS 300mg daily. Initially took defza6 daily for one month. Now Hb count shows 6.8 from initial value of 11. Doctor suggested to take defza6 again for 3 months with 7.5 mg Methotrexate and 400mg HCQS. Will I take steroid for long 3 months to improve Hb level?
