Answered by Dr. Babita Goel
It’s important to address your symptoms, including dizziness, frequent illness, and low iron levels. Being underweight can contribute to a range of issues, particularly fatigue and weakness, as can anemia, indicated by low hemoglobin. Common causes include inadequate nutrition or underlying health conditions. To help improve your iron, consider a balanced diet rich in iron sources like leafy greens, lean meats, and legumes. Pairing these with vitamin C can enhance absorption. However, I strongly encourage a visit to a hematologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized guidance.
