Probably menstrual : Your anemia is probably from menstrual loss. However, do not make assumptions and see a hematologist for an evaluation.

Iron rich foods: Iron pills are the best initial treatment to increase your iron stores which are probably down in females usually due to menstrual bleeding. Once corrected can go to a "womens" once a day vitamin which contain smaller amount of iron google iron rich foods.
