Question

I am 37 weeks pregnant and recently found out I have moderate anemia. How should I be treated?

Answer

If you are diagnosed with moderate anemia in the third trimester of pregnancy, you can take a polysaccharide iron complex capsule, one capsule daily, two capsules per dose. As long as the product’s instructions do not indicate that it should not be used by pregnant women and do not mention any effects on the fetus, it is generally safe to take. However, it is still recommended to supplement through food, such as eating jujube, pork blood, and other Qi-tonifying foods, to prepare for the upcoming childbirth. Wishing you a smooth delivery.
