How is anaemia diagnosed?

Question:

How is anaemia diagnosed?

Answer:

Doctors confirm anemia with lab tests - not just by looking at you.

Diagnosis Methods

  • CBC (Complete Blood Count): Checks hemoglobin and red blood cells.
  • Iron and vitamin tests: Finds out if it’s due to deficiency.
  • Bone marrow test: Rare, only if the cause isn’t clear.

Physical check-up: Pale skin, weakness, and health history.
