A member asked:
2 weeks ago i lost 3 pints of blood. my hemoglobin is now 11. when will it normalize? shall i get another cbc before then, or avoid aerobic exercise?

Go exercise: If you are physically able to exercise, please do so as tolerated. You may take oral iron and multivitamin supplements to hasten the recovery. It may take a couple of months for hemoglobin to get to baseline. There is no need to get an other CBC.
