Abstract

Latent iron deficiency (LID) in pregnant women is a hidden predictor of severe hematological complications, characterized by tissue iron depletion with normal hemoglobin levels. In the Surkhandarya region, LID is highly prevalent due to arid climate stress, dietary habits, and high parity with short intergenetic intervals. Untimely diagnosis leads to tissue sideropenia, impaired uteroplacental blood flow, and chronic fetal hypoxia. Developing comprehensive approaches to predict its impact on perinatal outcomes is crucial for the region's healthcare.
