Thank you for the query. AS per the history, you a 29yrs old unmarried lady, suffering from hemorrhagic followed by reduced Hemoglobin levels. I would like to know whether you suffer from any thyroid dysfunction (specially hypothyroidism). Presently, you He level is 11 GMT (which is not very bad), but you are still symptomatic (weakness, shortness of breath). I would advise you to undergo certain investigations, if you have not done them already - thyroid profile (hypothyroidism can lead to hemorrhagic, anemia, weakness), stool for Occult blood (to rule out ongoing blood loss), USG lower abdomen (to rule out uterine pathology) and iron profile (serum iron/TBC).  Vitamin supplements (like revival) may help, but you should go for oral iron and folic acid supplements. Nutritious diet with adequate protein content is advised. Fruits like apple and dates may help out. Please do visit your gynecologist for further advise and checkup Hope this helps you out.
