Iron deficiency in women is often caused by monthly blood loss during periods, increased iron needs during pregnancy and breastfeeding, poor dietary intake, and reduced absorption. Busy lifestyles, frequent dieting, stress, and skipped meals further worsen the issue. Fatigue, weakness, hair fall, dizziness, and frequent infections are common signs that are often ignored. Prioritising balanced nutrition and regular health check-ups is key to preventing iron deficiency.
