I'm really worried because my hemoglobin levels are quite low, around 7.6, and I'm currently 4 months pregnant. I'm looking for advice on how I can boost my iron levels during pregnancy. Can you suggest any dietary plans or tips on improving this situation?

My wife recently gave birth to a baby girl a few months ago, and we're thinking about spacing out our next child. Weve heard about the copper T when it comes to birth control, but were not exactly sure when we should get it inserted. Could you provide some guidance on this?

You can consider getting the Copper T inserted around 6-8 weeks postpartum, once your body has had some time to recover and after your first postpartum checkup. Its important to consult your doctor to ensure its the right choice for you and to discuss timing based on your health and preferences.
