Answer:
Hi,
If you have low iron you are more prone to bleeding in childbirth so it is better to have a vaginal birth rather than a caesarean as it has a higher risk of bleeding. You need to take your prescribed iron supplements to improve your iron levels to lower your risk of complications.
Best wishes,
Alex
