my doctor has me on 325mg twice a day of iron pills. he said that my level was 11.2 and i am slightly anemic. i only ever take one pill a day (skipping a day here and there) because they are really harsh on my stomach. the only thing i really notice when i dont take them is that i'm tired. if i ate better wouldnt it be just as good as taking an iron pill? am i really that anemic that i need them?
 
It is a little low but it is not that bad. If Im not mistaken anything below the normal level will make you anemic
