What is anemia?

The blood in your body is made up of red blood cells, which has a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin carries oxygen from your lungs to the other parts of your body.

If the hemoglobin or red blood cell count reduces in your blood, your body parts will not get enough oxygen. This condition is called anemia.

What causes anemia in pregnancy?

During pregnancy, your baby gets all the necessary food and nutrients from your blood. The placenta absorbs the nutrients from your blood to feed your baby. This can cause a decrease in hemoglobin in your blood. If your daily food intake does not have enough nutrients, the hemoglobin in your blood does not get replaced, causing anemia in pregnancy.

Too much blood loss from vaginal bleeding or bleeding from wounds or cuts during your pregnancy can also cause loss of blood cells, leading to anemia in pregnancy.

In general, anemia in pregnancy is caused by less iron, folate or vitamin B12 in your body.
