Abstract: RESUMOObjetivos: avaliar o impacto sobre os níveis de hemoglobina entre gestantes submetidas à suplementação com sulfato ferroso e orientações alimentares.Métodos: foram avaliadas 197 gestantes acompanhadas no pré-natal de uma unidade de saúde. O grupo intervenção foi composto por 105 gestantes com idade gestacional inicial entre a 14ª e a 20ª semana de gravidez, as quais receberam prescrição de 60 mg de ferro elementar por dia, por meio de sulfato ferroso, orientações alimentares e dosagem de hemoglobina real… Show more

“…In addition, the number of previous pregnancies had a significant negative effect on Hb, which was 0.10g/dL lower per additional previous pregnancy. This result corroborates those of other studies, which found lower Hb concentrations in pregnant women with a higher number of previous pregnancies 32 and an association between anemia and a number of pregnancies higher than three 33 .…”

Although iron absorption is high during pregnancy, the amount of dietary iron absorbed and mobilization of the iron stores are not enough to meet the demand 8 .…”
