sir
your wife is having anemia but cause of anemia is not always iron deficiency...you need to get her properly investigated to find the cause of anemia which includes her complete blood counts, serum iron levels, serum b12 levels, peripheral blood films, retic count and even bone marrow examination if required....so you discuss with your doctor, get her properly diagnosed for anemia and then proceed with treatment
Thanx
