PRO 26 : Anemia / Low Haemoglobin

Causes:

• Iron Deficiency: The most common cause of anemia worldwide, often due to inadequate dietary intake of iron, blood loss (such as heavy menstrual periods or gastrointestinal bleeding), or poor absorption of iron.
• Vitamin Deficiency: Lack of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) or folate (vitamin B9) can lead to a type of anemia called megaloblastic anemia.
• Chronic Diseases: Conditions such as chronic kidney disease, cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, or autoimmune disorders can interfere with red blood cell production or lead to increased destruction of red blood cells.

Symptoms:

• Fatigue: Feeling unusually tired or weak, even with adequate rest.
• Pale Skin: Paleness or a washed-out appearance of the skin, particularly noticeable in the face, lips, inner lining of the eyelids, and nail beds.
• Shortness of Breath: Difficulty breathing or feeling breathless, especially during physical activity or exertion.
• Dizziness or Lightheadedness: Feeling faint, dizzy, or lightheaded, particularly when standing up quickly.
• Rapid or Irregular Heartbeat: Heart palpitations, rapid heartbeat (tachycardia), or irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia).
