Abstract

Of 125 pregnant women, of whom 81 were treated and 44 not treated, 14 (12,5%) were found to be suffering from anemia, with a hemoglobin count to be diminished. In 31 cases iron deficiency was established and in 8 women vitamin B12 in serum was reduced. Iron and vitamin deficiencies were found more frequently in the non-treated group than in the treated group.
