I'm really concerned about my wife. She was dealing with weakness because of low hemoglobin levels and we consulted a physician for treatment. She felt much better for a while, but now the problem with low hemoglobin is back again. Could you please advise us on what we should do next?

Question

I'm really worried and could use some guidance. So, I had Jaundice last month, and during treatment, my doctor discovered I have Beta Thalassemia Minor. My hemoglobin count is typically between 7 and 9. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about? Also, I'm really into bodybuilding, so is it still okay for me to hit the gym? I heard that taking Folic Acid might help, but will using it long-term have any side effects? I'd appreciate your advice since this is all quite stressing me out.
