Objective: To determine the effects of moderate physical activity on HB level, and psychological well-being in females. Methodology: A single blinded, randomized control trial was conducted on n=30 participants for a period of 6 months. The participants with the age 18-25 years were recruited through non-probability convenient sampling technique and randomly divided into two groups experimental and control group.

Results: The mean age of study participants was 19.59±1.32 years. While mean BMI of the participants was 24.22±3.43 kg/m2. The result showed significant increase in hemoglobin concentrations in experimental group as compared to control group (p<0.001) after 6th week intervention. On the other hand, there were no significant differences between both group (p=0.63) at the end of intervention. Conclusion: Moderate physical activity group suggests that the intervention had a positive impact on this hemoglobin parameter. However, since there were no significant differences in perceived stress levels.
