Miniseries: Micronutrients during the first 1000 days of a child’s life, from conception through the first two years. Part 3: In this interview, we are exploring the impact of pregnancy on maternal iron demands as well as the factors that affect iron absorption and metabolism. While iron supplementation is not routinely recommended for all pregnant women, there are known risk factors for becoming deficient during pregnancy. We unpack strategies to identify and prevent iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia in pregnancy.
