Question 2

Question 3

I recently got my CBC test results, and the report shows my HCT is at 35.1 and it should be between 36-46, while my MCV is 77.7, but the normal range is 81-101. Also, my MCHC is 35.8, which seems a bit outside the usual 32.5-34.5 range. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Are there any precautions I need to take, or should I consider further tests? I decided to get tested because I've been experiencing early and frequent periods, along with weakness and paleness. These symptoms started after a period of depression from losing my dad in January, which affected my sleep and appetite. Although I'm emotionally better now, I can't help but feel these physical issues stem from that time. What steps should I take from here?
