A common blood disorder, anaemia is a condition, wherein, the body of a person has fewer red blood cells than what is necessary, either qualitatively or quantitatively. Majority of the blood comprises of hemoglobin, a molecule found in red blood cells. It carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. A deficiency in hemoglobin results in a lack of oxygen in the body, due to which survival becomes impossible. The three main kinds of anemia are excessive blood loss - due to hemorrhage, excessive blood cell destruction or hemolysis and deficient red blood cell production or ineffective hematopoiesis. In the following line, we have listed the various causes and symptoms of anemia
