Symptoms - Dangers - Solutions
Anemia, which is characterized by symptoms such as
fatigue and malaise, can lead to life-threatening illness
if not detected and corrected early.
Premium Story
A blood donation camp for cancer patients was held in
Chennai a few weeks ago. Only one of the nine women
2. who volunteered to donate blood at the camp, which
was run entirely by women, was eligible. The other
eight women were sent back because their hemoglobin
level was not enough.
There is nothing surprising in this. The World Health
Organization (WHO) estimates that one-third of women
worldwide of reproductive age suffer from anemia. The
statistics also show that 40 percent of pregnant women
and more than 40 percent of children under the age of
five suffer from anemia.

What is anemia?
More Health and Mental Topics
Before we know what anemia is, let's learn about red
blood cells. The function of red blood cells is to carry
the oxygen we breathe from the lungs to other parts
of the body. Anemia is a decrease in the number of
these red blood cells, a change in their shape, or a
decrease in the concentration of hemoglobin that gives
them red color.

Reasons
In our body, red blood cells are produced by stem cells
from the bone marrow. Anemia can occur if this
production is reduced or if there is a high level of red
blood cell destruction. Malnutrition is the leading cause
of low red blood cell count. If we do not have enough
4. iron, folic acid and vitamin B12 in our diet, red blood
cells will not be produced in the bone marrow.
Next, cancer cells may have invaded the bone marrow.
An autoimmune disorder is a condition in which all the
stem cells in the bone marrow are destroyed due to
over-immunity. Thus reducing the production of red
blood cells.
Third, one reason why red blood cells are not produced
in the right way is that they are highly destroyed.
Causes include excessive blood loss, hemolysis, and
splenic hyperplasia. Normally, red blood cells die in the
spleen after 120 days. When the spleen is overworked,
red blood cells can break down as early as 120 days.

Types of anemia
1. Nutritional anemia
Iron deficiency anemia is one of the most common
causes of malnutrition. Next is anemia caused by
vitamin B12 and folic acid deficiency. This is because
of the lack of adequate iron and folic acid in the diet.
Vegetarians may be deficient in B12.
6. The Complete Blood Count Test (CBC) will be taken to
confirm this. The hemoglobin level in it is lower than it
should be on average.
Next, a test called `Peripheral Blood Smear '. The
shape and size of the red blood cells may have
changed. In Iron Deficiency Anemia the number of
atoms is very small. The pigment inside is also less. All
of these will confirm iron deficiency anemia.
2. Hemolytic anemia
7. Red blood cells are Biconcave Shape. This shape
prevents the oxygen from getting trapped in the small
blood vessels as it is carried to the body parts. For
some, they may be circular in shape due to genetic
problems or a type of protein deficiency. Thus the tiny
blood vessels get trapped and go into the spleen and
get broken and ruptured.

Hemolysis is when a large number of red blood cells
break down and die. This condition is called
`Hereditary Spherocytosis'. What is the iron pill for
people with this disorder because the shape of the red

Even if weed and tonic are given, the atoms will go into
the spleen and perish. The only solution is blood
transfusion and spleen removal if necessary.
Anemia can also be caused by beta thalassemia or
sickle cell anemia, also known as hemoglobinopathies.
People with thalassemia gene in India
8. 3 to 4 percent are. It is more prevalent among certain
ethnic groups such as Sindhis, fruit drinkers, Islamists
and people living in Odisha and Gujarat.

Sickle cell anemia is more common in Cuddalore and
Pandharpur. This is anemia caused by excessive
destruction of red blood cells. Often occurs at birth.
In cell cell anemia the hemoglobin 'A' is replaced by
the hemoglobin 'S'. Thus the red blood cells, which are
supposed to be in the form of a disk, are in the form
of crescents. The cells become clogged, preventing
them from traveling into the bloodstream. Blood flow is
blocked. The red blood cells are soon destroyed and
anemia develops.

Sufferers may have pain in the abdomen, bones, and
joints. Eye disorders, lung damage, pneumonia, etc.
may occur. If both parents have a defective gene, the
baby will be born with complicated cell anemia. If only
one of the two has a defective gene, the baby will be
born with a mild infection called the ‘cell cell triad’.
9. Stroke, epilepsy, lung, tumor, spleen in people with cell
cell anemia. Vulnerabilities can come. Gallstones can
form. Miscarriage can occur if pregnant. The chances
of miscarriage, low birth weight and high blood
pressure in the mother are high.
If the parent is known to be vulnerable, the child can
be genetically tested. Newborn screening can also be
used to confirm if a baby is infected. Adults can be
confirmed by a 'peripheral smear' and a 'hemoglobin
electrophoresis' test.
POWERFUL BRAIN GET
There are medications that reduce the need for blood
transfusions and pain. Because children with this type
of anemia have a higher risk of infection, all
immunizations should be given to the child regularly.
Thalassemia anemia is a congenital defect. Adults
typically have 95 percent hemoglobin A and 5 percent
hemoglobin A2. The hemoglobin F is present in the
mother's womb. This 'hemoglobin F' does not disappear
after birth in people with thalassemia. There are two
10. types of thalassemia, alpha thalassemia and beta
thalassemia.
Beta thalassemia is the most common. There are two
types of beta thalassemia: beta thalassemia major and
beta thalassemia minor. The test can be done by taking
the mother's amniotic fluid while the fetus is still in
the womb to diagnose whether the fetus will be
affected. If the baby is anemic after birth or his
hemoglobin level is suspected, hemoglobin F may be
detected by a peripheral blood smear and hemoglobin
electrophoresis test.
POWERFUL BRAIN GET
Children with thalassemia may need regular blood
transfusions. They should not be given iron. For these,
the blood cells continue to be destroyed. So there will
be a lot of iron in the body. They are treated to
reduce excess iron. Sometimes they may need to have
their spleen removed. Bone marrow transplantation may
be considered as a last resort.
3. Aplastic anemia
11. It is a condition in which all three are low, such as red
blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. If you do
a `bone marrow biopsy 'it will not have stem cells. This
can confirm aplastic anemia. Victims may need blood
transfusions. Stem cell transplantation may be
performed if toner is available. Immunosuppressive
therapy may also be required. Some people may need
corticosteroid medications. Some people are also given
drugs called 'Bone Marrow Stimulants'. They are low in
white blood cells and can be life threatening if they
have a fever or infection.
POWERFUL BRAIN GET
The cause of aplastic anemia can not be found for
some time. Ablative anemia is more likely to heal
spontaneously after stopping chemotherapy or after
childbirth if it is known to be the result of a specific
medication or chemotherapy, or if it is due to
pregnancy.
4. Anemia of Chronic Diseases
12. It is anemia that results from prolonged exposure to
thyroid and kidney damage.
5. Anemia caused by blood loss
Excessive bleeding during menstruation, caused by blood
loss caused by piles problem.

Women and anemia
According to the National Health Survey, 55% of
women suffer from Iron Deficiency Anemia.
There are many reasons why women suffer from
anemia. The first reason is menstruation. Women
between the ages of 15 and 49 are more likely to have
iron deficiency anemia due to significant bleeding during
periods. Also, those who experience excessive bleeding
due to uterine problems such as fibroid and
adenomyosis are more likely to develop anemia.
More Health and Mental Topics
Our body needs about 18 milligrams of iron for its
average daily activity. That is, this requirement for a
baby's growth during pregnancy rises to 27 milligrams.
14. Pregnant women are more likely to suffer from anemia
if they do not get enough iron. A lot of blood loss also
occurs during childbirth. Although not enough iron is
absorbed during pregnancy, excessive bleeding and
anemia can occur during childbirth.

Iron deficiency, B12 deficiency and folic acid
deficiency are more common in children. Babies should
be exclusively breastfed for the first 6 months after
birth. They may have difficulty absorbing essential
nutrients when they start giving cow's milk or other
foods before that. Anemia can be caused by intestinal
infections, lead poisoning, or prolonged antibiotic
intake. Anemia can be caused by problems with iron
storage in preterm infants.
15. Those in their teens will have an increased need for
iron at that age. Adolescents also need more iron
because of periods. Some people have anemia due to
excessive bleeding due to the problem of ‘Puberty
Menorrhagia’. Poor eating habits and eating too much
junk food are also causes.

Do Iron Supplements Cause Constipation?
18. Many people avoid iron tablets because of muscle
cramps, vomiting and constipation in the abdomen.
Drugs containing iron salts such as ferrous sulfate,
ferrous fumarate, and ferrous gluconate can cause
constipation. Those who do not accept these may take
heme iron polypeptide, carbonyl iron, iron amino acid
chelate, polysaccharide iron complex etc.
Consume plenty of fibrous foods and drink plenty of
water as constipation is naturally high during
pregnancy. Orange juice rich in vitamin C, even when
taking iron tablets
Drink lemon juice.

Is it dangerous to overdo it?
People who do not have anemia caused by iron
deficiency should avoid taking iron supplements.
Hemochromatosis is a condition in which excess iron in
19. the body accumulates in various organs and can be
affected.
'Primary hemochromatosis' is congenital. Secondary
hemochromatosis is a condition in which genetic
disorders, such as thalassemia, cause the blood to
overflow and iron to be stored in organs. If they
unknowingly take iron supplements it can lead to
overdose, damage to the liver, pancreas, heart,
endocrine glands, joints, and even heart failure.
Therefore, iron supplements should not be taken
unnecessarily. Perhaps even if the iron is high they will
remove the excess iron with special treatments.

General Advice
21. Do not give more than 400 ml of milk a day to
children. Inhibits the absorption of high levels of milk
iron. Eat foods rich in iron and protein.
Avoid junk foods as they can cause iron deficiency.
Alcohol should be avoided altogether.
Good for cooking in iron pans.
Deworming should be done every three months and
personal hygiene is essential.
22. If you notice symptoms of anemia you should seek
treatment immediately. Iron tablets should not be
avoided, especially during pregnancy. Do not believe the
superstitious belief that the baby will be born bigger
and blacker if he eats iron pills. Iron intake can help
the baby's brain develop smoothly and prevent it from
developing anemia. Postpartum hemorrhage, which
causes excessive bleeding during childbirth, and
maternal mortality can be avoided.
More Health and Mental Topics
Iron tablets should be taken one hour before or 2
hours after eating. Carbohydrates in the diet, such as
phytate, reduce the absorption of iron. It can
sometimes be taken with meals when stomach and
intestinal problems are severe.

23. A gap of at least 2 - 3 years between two pregnancies
is important.
Only breastfeed newborns for the first 6 months.
Thereafter supplementary and complementary feeding
should be started in a timely manner.
People with a family history of thalassemia or
complication cell problems should seek preconception
counseling before marriage.

Government of India's initiative to put an end to
anemia
There is an anemia awareness movement in India called
'Anemia Mukt Bharat'. The incidence of anemia in
children was 58 percent, in children 40 percent, in
boys 29 percent, 11 percent, and in girls 54 percent.
24. They have decided to reduce it from 36 per cent, 50
per cent for women to 32 per cent and 58 per cent for
breastfeeding women to 40 per cent.
To reduce the risk of anemia by 2022, children
between the ages of 6 months and 5 years are given 1
ml of iron and folic acid syrup twice a week.
Children 5 - 9 years of age are given iron and folic
acid tablets once a week. Iron and folic acid tablets
are given once a week to children aged 10-19 and
women aged 20 - 49.
Pregnant women are advised to take iron and folic acid
tablets for 180 days from the fourth month. This
continues for up to 6 months after delivery.
Gestational anemia
As the amount of blood increases, so does the amount
of red blood cells in the plasma. We call this
‘physiological haemodilution’. Even women who do not
25. have anemia until then may develop anemia during
pregnancy. So they must take iron and folic acid daily.
