Why Anemia Profile is important?

Tests in the Anemia profile focus on the diagnosis of anemia. This test tells how much transferrin (a protein) is free to carry iron through your blood.

According to the National Family Health Survey, more than half of the women in India (i.e., 55%) are anemic, wherein 39% of the women are mildly anemic, 15% are moderately anemic, and 2% have severe anemia.

What set of people require this?

Doctors will diagnose anemia based on your medical and family histories, a physical exam, and results from tests and procedures.

If there is a deficiency or abnormality of red blood cells or hemoglobin, there is a disruption in the oxygen supply throughout the body. Hemoglobin levels of < 13.5 grams/100 ml for men and < 12 grams/100 ml for women indicate anemia and require an anemia profile test.
