A member asked:
My hemoglobin is 7.8. is this good or bad. already had it checked out wondering about symptoms and if i need tor rest more?

Low!: A woman should have a hemoglobin of about 12 or higher. Below 10 is considered abnormal and needs to be investigated for cause. Most common cause in women is iron deficiency. Please address this with your doctor to determine the cause and treat that.
