Just received my bloodwork results and I had a hgb of 6.9 and an hct of 24. I m an otherwise healthy 45 year old woman, and I do not have a heavy menstrual period at all, in fact just the opposite. I was suspecting uterine fibroids, as I suffer severe tailbone pain, yet I don t have any other symptoms of fibroids. Could fibroids and tailbone pain be related, and could I have fibroids that do NOT cause heavy menstrual cycles?
Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. Hemoglobin level is very low, and it should be treated. I suggest taking an iron and vitamin B supplement to relieve the symptoms. The fibroid should be evaluated through a gynecological ultrasound. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the tailbone. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
