A normal hematocrit range varies from 34.9 to 44.5 percent for adult women and 38.8 to 50 percent for adult men. The normal range for hemoglobin is 12.0 to 15.5 grams per deciliter for an adult woman and 13.5 to 17.5 grams per deciliter for an adult man. In iron deficiency anemia, the parameters are low and RBCs are usually got smaller in size than normal. Anemia confirmed with a CBC test to determine how severe the anemia and determine treatments. Microscopic examination help in examining blood and change in ferritin levels or RBC color determine the severity of anemia. Ferritin at low levels indicates low iron storage. The total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) test
