Answers:
First, only a doctor can tell you if you have this problem (anemia)!. Second, you generally get pretty tired because iron is the thing in your red blood cells (hemoglobin) that carries oxygen around your body!. So if you don't have enough iron, you're not getting enough oxygen, which could cause some issues if it becomes severe enough!. If you don't want to go to a doctor to find out, start taking a multivitamin with iron in it, and see if you feel better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Deficiency of iron causes anemia (low hemoglobin level in the blood)!.

There are many causes of anemia such as low iron in diet (dietary causes), excessive menstrual bleeding in women or any other bleeding or others etc!. Sometimes anemia is due to serious underlying disease!. Anemia itself is not a disease!.

Symptoms of anemia depends upon level of hemoglobin (normal level of hemoglobin is about 12 - 15 gm/dl, mine is 12!.2)!. If we have mild anemia (hemoglobin about 11), we may not feel anything!.

But if iwe have moderate to severe anemia, we may feel tired, breathlessness, lack of concentration etc!.

We should know the cause of anemia to treat it!. Please contact the doctor and get all the tests done to know the cause!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Low iron means you are anemic!. For me it makes me real tired, lightheaded,sometimes dizzy!. Diet can help by eating alot of dark green veggies,nuts, and vitamin C to help absorb the iron into the blood!. The Dr!. said to take iron supplements as well as a B-12 injection!. Injections not usual but for extreme cases I guess!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take iron supplements!. But make sure you go see a doctor first!.
With not enough iron you experience: faintness, hair loss, irregular (and too short) menstrual cycles!.
That's what I experienced anyway!.
