Hi,
Early morning is the best time to test for hcg.
To increase hemoglobin, you need to take vit B12 (B-complex preferably), folic acid and iron supplements.
There are other small nutritional elements involved, which you can increase through a balanced diet.
Food should have more of protien, carbohydrate and moderate amount of good fat.
Hope this helps.
Any further query, happy to help again.
