Anemia: Anemia is a condition where your hemoglobin or red blood cell count is lower than normal. If the level is just slightly lower than normal- is considered mild anemia. You may not have any symptoms related with that condition. In young woman like yourself, it is likely related to your period. Your doctor can have a little blood work to evaluate the cause of your anemia. Take prenatal multivit daily.
