Abstract:
It is an established fact that anaemia remains a threatening health condition among pregnant women in our society as such: the research project reviews the current knowledge of pregnant women regarding the level of health education in the prevention of anaemia among pregnant women.
This research was concluded using a self-developed questionnaire of 20 questions for data collection and a random sampling technique was used to select subjects for the study. Current knowledge indicates that anaemia in pregnancy is a risk factor for preterm delivery, low birth rate and possibly inferior neonatal health. It is also established that inadequate diet could lead to iron deficiency anaemia.
Even for women who enter pregnancy with reasonable iron supplements improves iron status during pregnancy and for a considerable length of time postpartum, thus providing some protection against iron deficiency in the subsequent pregnancy. It was deduced that mortality and morbidity rate is as result of lack of health Education over the prevention of anaemia in pregnancy.
