Like people say you’re probably not getting enough iron. But iron isn’t easily absorbed, especially iron pills. Takes a long time to build up. I was very anemic for awhile. Finally ended up getting a round of iron IV infusions. I think I am finally back to normal. A supplement I found that really helps is Foridex. It’s made from plants and flowers and seems easier for your body to absorb. You can get it online and probably some health food stores.
