Anemia & Low Hemoglobin Evaluation
Methodical diagnostic investigation of persistent low hemoglobin, iron deficiency, refractory anemias, and red cell production issues in Dhaka.
Clinical Diagnostic Overview
Anemia is not a standalone disease; it is a clinical manifestation of an underlying medical cause. Blindly taking iron supplements without proper investigation can lead to iron overload in conditions like Thalassemia trait or delay the diagnosis of occult gastrointestinal bleeding, malabsorption, or bone marrow hypoplasia.
Dr. Mohammad Ali performs root-cause diagnostic testing, including Ferritin, Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC), Vitamin B12, Serum Folate, Reticulocyte count, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
⚠️ When Specialist Hematology Consultation is Advised
Consult if your hemoglobin remains under 10 g/dL despite nutritional supplements, if you experience chronic breathlessness on mild exertion, or if anemia is accompanied by weight loss or jaundice.
