Does the increase in hemoglobin mean there's an increase in iron levels? Becoz some people have good haemoglobin but have lack of iron or ferritin levels.

Iron is needed to form hemoglobin, part of red blood cells that carry oxygen and remove carbon dioxide (a waste product) from the body. Iron is mostly stored in the body in the hemoglobin. About one-third of iron is also stored as ferritin and hemosiderin in the bone marrow, spleen, and liver.
