Description
Iron stores in the body exist primarily in the form of ferritin. Iron deficiency Anaemia is the
state where iron level is below normal, low transferrin saturation and ferritin as well as high
iron binding capacity. The aim of this study is to find out pervasiveness of iron deficiency
anaemia in teenage (10-16 years) female students living in Rural and Urban areas Moinabad
village, Ranga Reddy District, India. A Total 150 teenage female students were randomly
chosen from different Government Schools. The evaluation of Body Mass Index (BMI),
haemoglobin (Hb) and serum ferritin (SF) levels by using BMI standard formula Hemo-Cue
Hb 201+ analyzer and ELISA method respectively. The mean of BMI, Hb and SF levels were
observed at 17.21± 0.71, 10.93±0.91 and 36.86 ± 23.11 respectively from all female students.
Iron Deficiency Anaemia was observed in 67.3% of students. Nutritious deficiency is the
common cause of iron deficiency anaemia in female students.
