What is Iron deficiency anaemia?

Iron deficiency is a very common problem, especially in women who are pregnant or have given birth recently. The lack of iron can be due to blood loss from menstruation; however it also occurs when there isn’t enough dietary intake because some foods contain only small amounts while others don’t at all! If you suspect your body needs more than what’s being offered on its own terms then speak up about this issue with a doctor so they might prescribe tablets which will help supplement our diets accordingly

Symptoms of Iron deficiency can include:

  • tiredness and lack of energy
  • shortness of breath
  • noticeable heartbeats (heart palpitations)
  • pale skin
