hi
with low BP and low Hb% the first thing you need to do is keep yourself adequately hydrated . also a bit of dietary modification including fresh fruits (esp banana,apples , dates), green leafy vegetables (like spinach,) , jaggery and iron fortified food stuff like corn flakes. your choices are broader in case you take non veg as well.you can take iron supplements during periods but then taking iron supplements for long time causes constipation in many.
