Hello XXXXXX,
Thanks for writing to us.

Your Hemoglobin level 9 gm indicates Anemia.
If I were your treating dcotor I would suggest you Iron supplements like ferrous contains medication like Globac Z once a day after dinner for 2 months. Along with you need to take vitamin c supplements like Limcee once a day. You can get this medication with local doctor prescription.
And also you need iron rich diet like jaggery, fruits especially pomegranate ,apples,green leaf vegetables, carrot,beetroot,nuts like almonds, peanuts, chikoo
Low hemoglobin also can cause hair loss.
To nourish your hair
I suggest you Biotin 10 mg once a day for one month.
If you have dandruff use anti dandruff shampoo.
Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
