Hi everyone

I had my 28 week blood test results today and a few were low according to the standard levels they listed. I’ll ring the GP tomorrow but wondered if anyone had had similar levels and if they would treat this? The obvious answer would be it’s anaemia but I feel fine. These were the ones that concern me, nobody has contacted me but I can ring the GP tomorrow I just wondered if anybody had had similar?

the normal ranges are for the whole population and don’t take into account the normal physiological changes of pregnancy (which includes a dilutional anaemia). The results need to be interpreted in the context of the rest of the parameters and your medical history but on the face of it those are normal.
