Brief Answer:
Iron deficiency anemia

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I've checked the attached report. The low platelet count is likely caused due to dengue fever, while the hypochromic microcytic appearance of RBCs is probably due to an iron deficiency anemia but this should be confirmed by the hemoglobin level in your blood.

This can be easily be corrected by iron supplements together with Folic acid supplements.

I hope you find this helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
