How to supplement low average hemoglobin concentration

Low average hemoglobin concentration can be improved by adjusting diet, supplementing iron, treating primary diseases, and other methods. Low average hemoglobin concentration may be related to factors such as iron deficiency anemia, chronic blood loss, and hematopoietic dysfunction, usually manifested as symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and pale complexion.

1. Adjust diet

In daily life, you can increase the intake of iron rich foods in moderation, such as pig liver, duck blood, spinach, etc., while combining them with vitamin C rich broccoli, kiwifruit, etc. to promote iron absorption. Avoid drinking beverages such as strong tea and coffee that affect iron absorption. Diet should be balanced with high-quality protein and a variety of trace elements.

2. Iron supplements [SEP]: Iron supplements such as dextran iron oral solution, ferrous succinate tablets, and protein iron succinate oral solution can be used under the guidance of a doctor. During medication, regular blood routine checks should be conducted to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort or iron deposition caused by excessive iron intake. It is normal to experience black stool after taking iron supplements.

3. Treatment of Primary Disease

For chronic bleeding conditions such as gastrointestinal bleeding and excessive menstruation, it is necessary to treat the primary disease. Patients with gastric ulcers need to use drugs such as omeprazole enteric coated capsules and magnesium aluminum carbonate chewable tablets to control bleeding. Blood loss caused by gynecological diseases requires specialized treatment. Controlling the primary disease can effectively improve hemoglobin synthesis.

4. Improving hematopoietic function

When bone marrow hematopoietic function is abnormal, bone marrow puncture and other examinations should be performed. After identifying the cause, it may be necessary to use drugs such as recombinant human erythropoietin injection to stimulate hematopoiesis. Severe anemia patients may require blood transfusion treatment. Patients with abnormal hematopoietic microenvironment need to supplement with hematopoietic raw materials such as folic acid tablets and vitamin B12 tablets at the same time.

5. Regular monitoring

It is recommended to have a blood routine check every 1-2 months to observe the trend of hemoglobin concentration changes. Long term anemia patients need to check serum ferritin, transferrin saturation and other indicators to evaluate iron reserves. Children, pregnant women and other special groups need to develop personalized iron supplementation plans under the guidance of doctors.

It is necessary to maintain a regular daily routine and avoid overexertion. Moderate walking, yoga, and exercise promote blood circulation. Using an iron pot during cooking can increase dietary iron intake. If severe symptoms such as palpitations and shortness of breath occur, seek medical attention promptly to avoid long-term use of iron supplements that may cause iron overload. Pregnant women and children in their growth and development stage should pay special attention to preventing iron deficiency anemia.
