Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,welcome to healthcare magic.I understand your concern.
Iam Dr.Srilatha gynaecologist.I have gone through your query.
I have seen through your reports.
As per the reports the problem in your case appears to be iron deficiency anaemia.
Because there is low Hb,low iron,low ferritin,low MCH,low MCV,low MCHC and increased RDW and increased TIBC.All these above parameters clearly indicate iron deficiency anaemia.
This iron deficiency anaemia presents with weakness,breathlessness,tiredness, sleeplessness etc.
Irregular periods and vaginal dryness can also be attributed to iron deficiency anaemia.The vaginal dryness leads to vaginal itching.
Low Vitamin D is seen in your report which presents with leg pains.
Apart from this there is no other problem cited in you.
You need iron rich diet and iron and vitamin D supplements.
Iron rich diet like green leafy veggies,dates,zaggery,liver from non veg and vitamin D supplements like milk and milk related foods are helpful.
Once the HB and vitamin D gets normal then there will be relief from the symptoms.
Also take haematologist opinion regarding the blood picture.
Otherwise nothing to worry.Avoid stress.It is easily correctable through diet and supplements.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Feel free to discuss furthur.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
