<![CDATA[Anemia is a medical condition in which the number of red blood cells or hemoglobin is less than normal. Normal hemoglobin levels are generally different in men and women. For men anemia is usually defined as a hemoglobin level of less than 13.5 grams/100 ml. Anemia is a common blood disorder that occurs when the level of red blood cells (erythrocytes) in the body becomes too low. This can cause health problems, because red blood cells contain hemoglobin, which carries oxygen to body tissues. Anemia can cause various complications including fatigue and stress on the body's organs. Anemia occurs due to lack of iron and folic acid in the body. Women who suffer from anemia will have an impact on pregnancy and have the potential to give birth to babies with low birth weight. Besides that, Anemia can result in the death of both mother and baby during childbirth.
