- Men: The hemoglobin level typically ranges from approximately 11 to 15 g/dL.
- Women: The hemoglobin level typically ranges from approximately 10 to 13 g/dL.
| Type of Thalassemia | Sex | Hemoglobin Level (g/dL) |
|---|---|---|
| β-thalassemia minor | Men | 11-15 |
| β-thalassemia minor | Women | 10-13 |
