Anemia/Iron Deficiency

Anemia/Iron Deficiency is a condition characterized by low levels of red blood cells or a decrease in the amount of iron within the body. It occurs when the body lacks sufficient iron to produce hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen to tissues and organs. Symptoms of Anemia/Iron Deficiency may include fatigue, weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, and irregular heartbeat. Treatment typically involves increasing iron intake through dietary sources or supplements, and in severe cases, blood transfusions may be necessary. Early detection and appropriate management of Anemia/Iron Deficiency are crucial to prevent complications and improve overall health.
