What Is Iron Deficiency Anaemia? | GUTCARE
#Iron #Deficiency #Anemia is due to insufficient iron in your body. Without enough iron, your body can't produce enough #haemoglobin - a #protein found in the red blood cells that carry oxygen in your body. As a result, iron deficiency anemia may leave you tired and short of breath.
If iron supplements don't increase your blood-iron levels, it's possible that the anemia is due to a source of bleeding or an iron-absorption problem that your doctor will need to investigate and treat. Consult your #gastroenterologist to have your condition assessed and receive advice and treatment options specific to yourself.
