Anemia is a condition in which hemoglobin levels or the number of red blood cells decrease, causing tissues to receive less oxygen. Most often, anemia manifests as weakness, pallor, dizziness, and fatigue.

Causes may include iron or vitamin deficiency, chronic diseases, or blood loss. Treatment depends on the type of anemia and aims to address the underlying cause.
