Male or female?
If you are female you are borderline anemic. 12-14 is normal. Almost all the red on the report is related to anemia, talk to your GP about how to raise your iron levels (and also I'm not a doctor...)
Simple ways are red meat, oysters, tofu, spinach, broccoli, nuts, etc, you could also take an iron supplement, just don't take it with tea and make sure the supplement has vitamin c, which helps absorption.

Thx EY1! GP says I’m anemic. She said it’s mild and she’ll keep an eye on it. I started taking an iron pill. I know what yo mean about tummy! Diet is Hugh in fiber and I drink plenty so hoping for no issues 😊

Had a my 7 week ultrasound today, confirming I’m PREGNANT after my second medicated IUI!!!! So happy to have heard that heartbeat. There were some oddities on the ultrasound- wondering if any of you have experienced any/all of these and how it worked out (doc didn’t sound alarms, just said we’d keep an eye, but naturally I’m worried):
1. Grapefruit sized cyst on right ovary 2. Unknown object with no heartbeat (maybe a hematoma) in the gestational sac with my baby 3. An empty gestational sac

Final round! Panel interview w an assignment to present some ideas on how to increase customers for 1 of 5 key audience segments.
I’m most familiar with 1 as it’s the audience I work with at current job. Not enough info/experience with other 2 segments. Remaining segments I know enough but not as confidently.

Will it look like I took the easy way out if I chose my segment? They know it’s my current audience and has been for 8 yrs. Would love to hear your thoughts!
