hi, your Hb level is low, and your ferritine level is also low. ferritine is the storage form of iron and it is very low in your case. it suggest that you have iron deficiency anemia. you take iron rich diet like jegery, dates, green leafy vegetables, dry fruits etc. and take oral iron supplement tablets which you are already taking.it will increase your iron level and hb level.
thanks for using health care magic.
