I just found out that my blood pressure is high for my age.
I am 28years - female.
Blood pressure is 124/89.

I was told that my Diastolic should be around 80 not 89.
Will donating blood reduce my blood pressure?
Would donating blood dramatically reduce my iron levels as well? Coz my iron levels are on the low side.
Thanks in advance.
