Low hemoglobin is cause from a slow bleed somewhere . Or it could even be a bleed that is heavier .Alot of blod disorders could cause it .I would say slow bleed .
I'd like to confirm that low hgb is caused by anemia or hemorrhage (bleeding).You can get anemia if you lack iron or if you have one or more of the various diseases that cause your body to not make new red blood cells (e.g. aplastic anemia), destroy red blood cells (e.g. sickle cell anemia), or bleed a lot (e.g. hemophilia).
Hemorrhaging (bleeding) due to external or internal injury can cause you to become anemic from loss of red blood cells.
Hematocrit is a percentage, so low hct with normal hgb levels could mean overhydration.
Iron
if you have low levels of hemoglobin, you can expect to live for 12 hours longer.
Iron levels are low or or hemoglobin are low definitely check with doctor.
My wife had low neutrophils [neutropenia] and low iron levels until she came of Enbrel.
A low hemoglobin count is not a direct cause of cancer. However, some cancers can lead to low hemoglobin levels due to factors such as internal bleeding or bone marrow suppression. It's important to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation if experiencing persistent low hemoglobin levels.
HDW, or hemoglobin distribution width, measure hemoglobin heterogeneity. Anemia's and vitamin deficiencies can result in lower than normal levels. If levels are low, further testing is done to determine the exact cause.
HIV is a virus that causes AIDS. It does not result from abnormal hemoglobin or abnormal hemoglobin levels.
A hemoglobin level of 11.7 g/dL is considered low for adult males. Normal hemoglobin levels for adult men typically range between 13.8 to 17.2 g/dL. It is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management if the hemoglobin level is low.
Hemoglobin levels, hematocrit levels, and red blood cell count are blood measurements that can provide information on a possible anemic condition. Anemia is often characterized by low levels of these parameters.
Yes, a hemoglobin count of 8.4 g/dL would be considered low. Normal levels for adult males are typically in the range of 13.8 to 17.2 g/dL and for adult females are usually in the range of 12.1 to 15.1 g/dL. Low hemoglobin levels can indicate anemia or other underlying health conditions that may need further investigation and treatment.
If you have a high hematocrit, your hemoglobin levels would likely be high as well. Hematocrit measures the volume of red blood cells in blood, while hemoglobin is the protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells. An increase in hematocrit often corresponds with an increase in hemoglobin levels.
