Background & Aims: Iron deficiency anemia is one of the most common problems during pregnancy that causes premature birth, low birth weight, increased fetal mortality, and increased postpartum hemorrhage. The present study was conducted on the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia and the factors affecting it in pregnant women referring to the health centers of Fanuj city.
Materials & Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, 217 pregnant women were selected by stratified sampling method. The amount of hemoglobin was collected by referring to the family file of the pregnant mother and using a checklist including demographic information (8 questions), fertility characteristics (22 questions) and laboratory information (2 questions). Data were analyzed using SPSS (version 22) and Chi-square and Spearman tests.
Results: The prevalence of anemia in the first trimester of pregnancy was 19.8% and in the second trimester, 32.3%. There was a significant difference in the group with and without anemia with education level, family income, body mass index, and pre-pregnancy weight, time of registration of pregnancy, number of pregnancies, number of births, type of previous birth, pregnancy interval, history of urinary infection. There was no significant relationship between mother's age, mother's job, place of residence, prenatal care, number of prenatal cares.
Conclusion: According to the results of the study, there are factors affecting to anemia that can predict it. Therefore, it is important to identify high-risk pregnant women, train them by health personnel and ensure adequate and timely care for them.
