Low Hb can lead to extra hospital complications during delivery, increasing costs. Focus on iron-rich foods like jaggery (gur) and chana, and make sure to take your government-provided iron tablets.

I had low Hb and PCOS too, so I had to be very careful. Eat beetroot and pomegranate, but don't skip your doctor's iron supplements as food alone might not be enough.

Squeeze a lemon on your spinach or iron-rich food. Vitamin C helps in absorbing iron much better, my doctor gave me this practical tip!
