My hemoglobin is low, and I am experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding. My gynecologist has suggested removing the uterus. Could you please advise if this is the only option, or if there are alternative treatments to manage heavy bleeding and improve hemoglobin levels?

Heavy bleeding with low hemoglobin can cause anemia and fatigue. Uterus removal is not the only option unless severe fibroids/polyps exist. Try iron therapy and hormone based treatments first. Get a CBC, Pelvic USG, and Iron Studies to reassess.

Sir, I am 23 years old and have been suffering from indigestion for the past one year. I do not have any fever. My blood test results are: Hemoglobin is 10.10, TLC is 19200, Polymorphs is 83, Lymphocytes is 15, Monocytes is 01. The rest, including eosinophils, basophils, RBC count, platelet count, and ESR, are within the reference range. Could you please suggest what this indicates and what I should do?
