Fatigue, brain fog, hair loss, poor concentration, low mood. These symptoms are common in women and are often attributed to stress, hormones, or simply a busy life. But could she actually be running on empty? Iron deficiency is frequently overlooked, particularly before anemia develops, and women face unique risks across adolescence, menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum and perimenopause.
Join Dr. Bal Pawa, physician, pharmacist and women’s health expert, for an engaging and practical look at iron deficiency through the female reproductive lifespan. Using clinical cases and everyday pharmacy encounters, learn how to recognize the subtle signs, interpret ferritin and laboratory findings, counsel on effective iron therapy and know when further investigation or referral is needed. Most importantly, discover how one well-timed question at the pharmacy counter can help identify iron deficiency earlier and make a meaningful difference in a woman’s health.
