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?

Is it a problem to have low platelets during pregnancy? My platelet count is currently at 1 lakh.

A platelet count of 1 lakh during pregnancy is considered relatively normal and usually isn't a cause for major concern.
