Need to see doctor: For more specifics about options, followup with your doctor. Questions are answered in a general way with the HealthTap public questions. You can also opt for a paid consult with a HealthTap Prime doctor.

Not online: unfortunately you won't get an answer for a bit complicated case as yours on this limited platform and not online anyways. You need to be approached by a team comprising an OB/gyn and a hematologist or an internist experienced in blood diseases, in addition to rigorous follow up with labs monitoring your blood status. Start with your PCP who can manage / coordinate your care, good luck

Consult physician : Specific questions require further information that is addressed in conversation with a physician. Opt to do a virtual consult or speak with your physician so the full details of what you are experiencing can be addressed and a personalized treatment plan can be created.
