My hb came low in the report and my gynac wants me to bring it up. I feel tired and a bit dizzy by evening. Apart from the medicine she gave, what foods actually helped you raise your levels? pls share.
My amma fed me lots of greens, dates and ragi to keep my blood up. It really helped along with my iron tablets. But always take the supplements as your doctor says, na, dont skip those.
Iron rich foods are key, so dates, jaggery, green leafy veggies, beetroot and the iron tablets your gynac prescribes. I was anemic in my first and these plus my supplements brought it up. Have vitamin C foods alongside to absorb iron better.
Cheap and effective things worked for me, jaggery, spinach, dates and seasonal greens. No need for fancy supplements beyond what the doctor gives. Just dont skip the prescribed iron, it matters.
Along with iron rich food, please keep checking your hemoglobin at your regular visits. Mine was low and the doctor adjusted my supplements based on the reports. Regular testing is the real way to track it.
