Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Li Man
Causes of anemia include malnutrition, as prolonged malnutrition can lead to nutritional anemia; and significant iron deficiency, which can result in iron-deficiency anemia, commonly seen in women of childbearing age and during lactation due to increased iron requirements. Additionally, diseases such as leukemia and aplastic anemia can also cause anemia. Therefore, once anemia is diagnosed, patients are advised to actively cooperate with their doctors for treatment.
