Low blood Pressure or ANEMIA: is a condition which occurs, due to reduced hemoglobin levels. Anemia can be hereditary in children’s, and in adults it could be because of bad diet regime, during pregnancy especially in the evening time. There is a possibility of headache, yellow skin.
There are different kinds of anemia, from which the most common is Iron deficiency anemia. The main cause is deficiency of iron in the diet. As said before during pregnancy also it may happen, at that time iron tablets are given and if required injections can also be given. This has to be decided by the doctor treating you. Taking care of the diet is very much important to eliminate this issue.
