Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of body iron storage replenishment between low dose intravenous iron and oral iron in late pregnancy.
Detailed Description:
Despite routine antenatal oral iron supplementation, the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy in developing countries remains high. Apparently, intravenous iron sucrose appears to be safe and efficient in treating within a short period. From literature review, no study of intravenous iron for IDA treatment has been carried out in the third trimester of pregnancy. This research aims to compare the efficacy of body iron storage replenishment at 3 weeks as labor may take place at this point in some women. In this study,500 mg intravenous iron has been given weekly instead of every other day for the sake of patient's convenience in the hope that parenteral iron may become another alternative for treatment of pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia who have difficulties or failures with oral iron.
