What Causes Low Hemoglobin?

I have had clotting during my jens trail cycle I am 48 yrs old. Had bcc hgb 3.56 hot 7.8 . Are there other blood tests that should be done to evaluate this ? Does the excessive bleeding play a factor and can a small fibroid and a sense of sexual relations for several years effect it?

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have low hemoglobin. Bleeding is the most common cause of low hemoglobin. It ultimately leads to iron deficiency anemia. You should go for peripherals smear examination once. Consult your gynecologist and take treatment of fibroid. Also take iron rich food like jeggary, dates, green leafy vegetables, dry fruits etc. You can also take oral or injectable iron supplements. O ce your bleeding will stoped. Your hb will come back to normal.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
