I can give you advice on how to up your iron levels. I got some floradix which is a herbal tonic and tastes quite nice. No side effects and you can take it freely. Then there is Milo, a hot chocolate drink, which when made up with milk gives you 107 percent of your daily iron requirements. There are foods that are helpful including black grapes, steak etc = just google iron rich foods. So you can do wonders without even taking any iron tablets if you dont get on with them. Also folic acid tablets are good as they help to form red blood cells.
