Youssef’s results from Al Borg Labs
YouLab assistant explanation
I compared every value with its normal range, and with earlier results where there are any.
Blood count normal, iron stores low
All blood count values are normal for Youssef’s age, with no anemia. His iron stores (ferritin) are below normal. That is common in growing children and worth discussing with his pediatrician before it affects his hemoglobin.
I compared the values with normal ranges for children aged 6 to 12.
