Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 14y old daughter has struggled with eating another calories but since October she has been eating well but for a month she has been taking iron tables as. A blood test showed a low count. She remains dizzy almost passing out, tired and has nose bleeds. Can you help?
you need not to worry much. it is very common in adolescences. Iron tablet before going to bed everyday for not less than 6 months.then you can repeat the test. Increase green leafy vegetables, pulses, jaggery in diet. Apply cold sponges when nose bleeds. As iron level increases the symptoms will relieve.
