Your mother’s reports suggest moderate–severe Iron Deficiency Anemia.
What the values mean:
Hb 6.8 g/dL → quite low
Ferritin 10 → low iron stores → confirms iron deficiency
Hb <7 → may need hospital evaluation
If symptoms (breathlessness, dizziness, chest pain, weakness): Blood transfusion may be required
Treatment
Start oral iron therapy (e.g., ferrous ascorbate / ferrous sulfate)
Take with vitamin C (improves absorption)
Avoid tea/coffee within 1 hour of tablets.
Poor tolerance / no improvement ,you might consider IV iron therapy
Next Steps
Find the cause (VERY IMPORTANT)
Common causes:
• Chronic blood loss (heavy periods, piles, GI bleed)
• Poor diet
• Worm infestation
Health Tips
Diet advice
• Green leafy vegetables (spinach)
• Jaggery, dates
• Beetroot, pomegranate
• Meat/egg (if non-veg)
