Question about iron

My iron was really low, 7.9 , & I was instructed by my doctor to take a multi vitamin with iron and with orange juice, how long did it take for your iron to get back to a normal range by taking the multi vitamin with iron?

    I also had very low iron, around 8. My doctor had me take 1 iron supplement with orange juice 3 times a day. I was up to 11.4 within 2 months.
