My son's blood group is B positive, and we've got a marriage proposal from a girl whose blood group is O negative. I'm a bit confused and worried about this. Is O negative considered a negative blood group, and is it compatible with my son's B positive? I'd really appreciate your advice on this matter.

View allI'm looking at my blood report, and I see that my hemoglobin is at 11.4, and my ESR levels are elevated. I'm a bit concerned and wondering what this might mean. Could this be a sign of an infection or something else?

Got my blood work back, and it turns out my iron levels are on the low side, measuring 41 ugdl when it should be between 60 to 150 ugdl. Should I be worried about this, and what steps can I take to improve it?
Low iron levels can lead to anemia and other health issues if left untreated. To treat this, I recommend taking Ferrous Sulfate tablets. You can take Ferrous Sulfate tablets. It is important to take it on an empty stomach for better absorption. Also, include iron-rich foods in your diet such as red meat, poultry, fish, beans, and fortified cereals. Additionally, consuming vitamin C-rich foods or supplements can help enhance iron absorption. Regularly follow up with your healthcare provider to monitor your iron levels and adjust the treatment as needed.
