High Hemoglobin would allow you to carry more oxygen. so i don't think it would cause fatigue.
High hemoglobin can most definitely cause fatigue. I thought the same as the above answer until I was diagnosed with it BECAUSE of fatigue. But as is the case many times, too much of a good thing is bad for you. Causes are varied, from blood disorders to living in high altitude to simply not getting enough sleep (or not sleeping well such as if you have sleep apnea).
It can also be dangerous as it can clog your arteries if not kept in check. See your doctor!!
A hemoglobin level of 4.7 is dangerously low and if not properly treated could become fatal. Normally, women should have a hemoglobin level of 12 or more, men 13 or more. Generally, hospitals will begin emergency blood transfusions when the hemoglobin level drops below 7 or 8.
if you have low levels of hemoglobin, you can expect to live for 12 hours longer.
If your hemoglobin level is 9.0, follow the advice of your health care provider. Further testing will determine the possible cause and recommended treatment. No treatment can be determined from the hemoglobin level alone. (For instance, just knowing if you're male or female, and whether or not you're menstruating, has a big impact on the treatment plan.)
A hemoglobin level of 18.7 g/dL is higher than normal and is known as polycythemia. This could be caused by various conditions like dehydration, lung disease, or bone marrow disorders. It is important to consult a healthcare provider to determine the cause and decide on appropriate management.
First, determine the cause. In the U.S. (and the world) the most common cause of a high hemoglobin is smoking cigarettes. This is due to the fact that carbon monoxide (in the bloodstream, from the inhaled smoke) binds to hemoglobin, therefore not allowing enough oxygen to bind. The body responds by manufacturing more hemoglobin in order to compensate. So, if you smoke, stopping smoking will take care of this problem. If smoking is not in the equation, then hemochromatosis, or other conditions could be in play. Consult your physician in the case of a high hemoglobin and being a nonsmoker.
This information can be used to help physician's diagnose and monitor anemia (a low hemoglobin level) and polycythemia vera (a high hemoglobin level).
what could be the reason that my oxygen level drops below 80 at times during my sleep? i do not have sleep apnea.

could indicate anemia
Low hemoglobin level

it will show your hemogblobin level , and let you know if you're in a good health condition . if you wanna test your hemoglobin level at home,you can get a nice hemoglobin meter at medasia.store
