Abstract

Female adolescent students in boarding schools are vulnerable in having anemia due to packed schedule and limited animal source food. The aim of this research was to compare the differences of haemoglobin level after weekly Iron Folate Acid (IFA) tablet supplementation and weekly plus daily IFA tablet supplementation during menstruation for 8 week of intervention among anemic students. This study used quasi experimental non equivalent control group design. A total of 40 anemic respondents was selected in this study, 20 of them received a weekly IFA tablet supplementation (treatment 1 group), and the 20 other respondents received weekly plus daily during their menstruation (treatment 2 group). The first hemoglobin measurement and other variables were obtained prior to intervention. Around 52% of all 278 eligible students were anemic at the start of the study. Of the anemic selected sample, 2 of them left the boarding school in the middle of the study because they were ill. At the end the study 23 out of 38 anemic samples (60.5%) became non anemic. There was a significant increase of haemoglobin level in both groups after the intervention (both groups have p value < 0.01). This increase was not significantly different between the two interventions (p = 0.797). This study proved that weekly supplementation was as effective as weekly plus daily supplementation during menstruation in increasing Haemoglobin (Hb) level among anemic students.
