Abstract

Nutrition is one of the determining factors to achieve excellent and optimal health. Anemia is still a nutritional problem in the world, especially in developing countries, including Indonesia. Anemia is a condition in which a person's hemoglobin (Hb) level in the blood is lower than normal. Infertile women are one of the groups at risk for anemia. Several research results in several regions in Indonesia show that the prevalence of anemia infertile women is still high. We aim to describe the incidence of anemia in women of childbearing age in Ciseeng, Bogor, 2021. Using a qualitative study design, employing FGD, in-depth interviews, and active observation. All informants suffer from moderate anemia with Hb levels between 8.7 g/dl to 10.8 g/dl and have several symptoms or signs of anemia, namely 5L, dizziness, fatigue, pale nails, lips, and eyelids. The lack of iron-containing foods and the presence of tea in the breakfast menu of the informants is one of the factors that make the informants suffer from anemia, due to the disruption of iron absorption by the tannins contained in tea. Most of the informants have abnormal menstrual patterns and this is one of the determinants of the incidence of anemia experienced by the informants. An overview of matters relating to the incidence of anemia in women of childbearing age at youth organizations in Ciseeng Bogor, including a description of nutrient intake, breakfast behavior, tea/coffee drinking behavior, menstruation, nutritional knowledge. All key informants had Hb levels below 12 g/dl, ie 8.7 – 10.8 g/dl. Three informants had Hb levels below 10 g/dl, 12 others had Hb levels 10-11 g/dl. The results of this Hb examination indicate that all informants suffer from anemia which is classified as moderate anemia according to the classification of anemia according to WHO.
