Sandeep Ss · Answer

26/F..above reports suggestive of 28 weeks pregnancy with iron deficiency anaemia.
WHO says below 10 as anaemia but normally below 9 considered 
for detailed investigation in preganancy.
anaemia seen due to haemodilution and negative iron balance in body during pregnancy.
if below nine,< 30 weeks of pregnancy considered oral iron therapy plus diet.
can increase the dose of feronia xt for bd in such cases.
if below 9 remains after 30weeks then mostly advisable for parenteral iron compounds
Frankly speaking nothing worrysome in this case looks.its normal.
gynecologist takes proper care of such cases.
u can be free from anxiety.

Smitha Athota · Answer

Continue Iron supplementation.
Diet rich in Iron should be advised.
I don't think she needs parenteral iron as it is only 28 wks.
