A member asked:

My hgb is 12.3 and the system says it's not in a normal range, why? hgb

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If you are a male, lower limit of normal for hemoglobin is 14 g/dL. In a male, low hemoglobin warrants exclusion of bleeding in the intestine. It would be prudent to see your doctor.
