Hemoglobin 12.1 g/dl, hematrocrit 36% . redblood cell distribution width 16.1%. mcv 81 fl. can someone tell me if these numbers are ok?

Low hemoglobin: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, for a male your hemoglobin is low and you need to be checked out for blood loss and/or mal-absorption. Please consult your doctor for that.
