5.5 is very low. One must take iron supplements if your hemoglobin levels are 5.5. However, consider investigating why your levels are low with a blood test.

Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...

Take a ABPA MINI PANEL (ALLERGIC BRONCHOPULMONARY ASPERGILLOSIS) Test or Take a VMA(Vanillyl Mandelic Acid)- Spot Urine Test
