It means that you have anemia, depending upon your age and gender. Average levels for an adult woman are between 12 and 16. Average levels for an adult male are between 14 and 16. Children can have much lower level depending upon their exact age. Anemia means that you have below average levels of red blood cells, of hemoglobin, in your blood. It could be from a recent serious injury with a lot of blood loss, or it could be due to chemotherapy from cancer. It's hard to tell you what the cause could be with no information. Talk to your doctor about it if you have more questions, but from my training and personal experience, I can positively tell you that you have anemia.
