Abstract
This literature review aims to elucidate the impact of anemia during pregnancy on maternal and perinatal outcomes. Anemia, a common condition in pregnant women, has been associated with adverse outcomes such as preterm birth, low birth weight, and maternal mortality. By examining various studies and reports, this review seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the correlation between anemia and these outcomes, and the potential strategies for prevention and management.
Keywords: Anemia impact, perinatal outcomes, preterm birth, maternal mortality
