Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Anemia is not a disease but a symptom. Relevant investigations are required to know the cause of anemia. Complete hologram and peripheral blood smear examination are required to know the cause of anemia. There are three basic causes of anemia-decreased production of hemoglobin, blood loss and increased destruction of red blood cells. Treatment of anemia can be planned after knowing the cause of anemia. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
