To address your low hemoglobin (8.2) due to fibroids and upcoming surgery, your doctor will likely recommend a combination of treatments to stop the bleeding and boost your red blood cell count. Iron supplements are essential, and depending on the severity of your bleeding, other medications or procedures might be considered, according to Cleveland Clinic and NYU Langone Health.
