Abstract

According to the WHO, up to 20% of the world's population suffers from iron deficiency anemia (IDA), but this problem is most acute in obstetrics and pediatrics. It is during pregnancy and childhood that situations most often arise that lead to an iron deficiency in the body. Iron deficiency at the end of pregnancy develops in all women in a latent or explicit form, even in those cases when the initial hematopoietic parameters in the first trimester of pregnancy were normal (GA Samsygina, 2001; SI Vakhrameeva et al.; 1996). IDA, as well as latent iron deficiency, can be the cause of fetal sideropenia, as well as the cause of anemia in the postnatal period.
