I'm a bit worried because my recent test showed my hemoglobin level is 8.6, and I was told that's on the low side. About three months ago, I was fastingcould that be related? Can you suggest ways to boost my hemoglobin level, and what foods should I focus on? Are there any symptoms or serious issues I should be aware of with a level like this? Also, how long does it usually take to see an improvement?

With a hemoglobin level of 8.6, which is below the normal range of 13.5-17.5 gdL for adults, you may experience symptoms like fatigue, weakness, pale skin, and shortness of breath; to improve your hemoglobin level, consume iron-rich foods like spinach, beans, lentils, and fortified cereals, and vitamin C-rich foods like citrus fruits, bell peppers, and tomatoes to enhance iron absorption with proper diet and supplements, you can expect to see improvements in your hemoglobin level within 2-3 months, but regular follow-up blood tests are necessary to monitor progress.Last updated on 29 Jan 2025
