Hi lybrate-user As per your height your weight is on the higher side. You need to lose minimum 15-20 kg. The cholesterol levels would come down once you reduce your weight and fat mass. Start exercising regularly and take good control of your diet. High levels of testosterone can also lead to infertility and are commonly seen in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). So get an ultrasound done to confirm for PCOS. For increasing your Hb Foods rich in iron include: Poultry like chicken and eggs Seafood. Beans. Dark green leafy vegetables, such as spinach. Dried fruit, such as raisins and apricots. Iron-fortified cereals, breads Watermelon Rice Flakes Watermelon seeds To improve your absorption of iron, eat it along with a good source of vitamin C -- such as orange juice, anal juice, guava,broccoli, or strawberries. If you have trouble getting enough iron from food sources, you may need an iron supplement Vitamin B12: Methylcobal 500 mcg twice a day for 2 months Reduce stress, have 8-10 glasses of water, exercise regularly, eat healthy and sleep for minimum 6-7 hours.
