Health status<br />
She doesn't have any symptoms of anemia such as headache, blurred vision, dizziness, weakness and no<br />
abdominal pain or worms in her swoons.<br />
Analysis: Breastfeeding while pregnancy increases her iron needs and contribute to anemia (severe). We noticed<br />
an important decrease in her Hb value during her pregnancy but we didn't find the cause in the clinic's data.<br />
Other than breastfeeding and pregnancy, she doesn't have many factors contributing to her low iron status. Her<br />
BMI is not so low but undernutrition might be present. She doesn't have any symptoms of intestinal infections or<br />
anemia, even though her Hb is 6 gm % (severe anemia) and she practices open air defecation. From this<br />
interview we couldn't find any cause of her severe anemia other than undernutrition, the main cause in overall<br />
