Iron deficiency, usually leading to anemia, occurs when lack of sufficient iron reserves leads to little or no production of healthy red blood cells. It is easily detected with a simple blood test. Common symptoms of iron deficiency include:
- Chronic Fatigue Or Weakness – Iron is essential for producing hemoglobin, which carries oxygen to all parts of the body. Reduced oxygen leads to muscles and tissues under stress which causes fatigue.
- Pale Skin – Lack of iron causes pale skin as reduced hemoglobin decreases the red color of the blood.
- Shortness of Breath – lack of oxygen causes shortness of breath even after mild physical activity.
- Brittle Nails & Hair Loss – Iron deficiency weakens the strength of nails and hair making them brittle, thin and prone to breaking.
- Heart Palpitations – Heart needs to work harder due to lack of oxygen leading to irregular heartbeats or pounding feeling in the chest.
- Chronic Headaches & Migraine – Iron deficiency leads to less oxygen supply to brain causing mild to severe headaches and migraine.
- Dizziness & Lightheadedness – Less oxygen supply to brain leads to frequent dizziness.
- Unusual Cravings – Iron deficient people usually crave for non-food items such as clay, dirt or ice. Such cravings are very common, especially among pregnant women.
- Restless Leg Syndrome – Iron deficiency is the leading cause of unpleasant sensations in legs, often at night.

Why is iron drip needed?
Patients typically need an iron infusion to correct low blood iron levels.
