Anaemia is a major public health issue that affects both developing and developed countries with severe implications for both human health and social and economic growth resulting in a loss of billions of dollars annually. During pregnancy, anemia is considered extreme when the concentration of hemoglobin is less than 7.0g / dL, moderate when-hemoglobin falls between7.0__ampersandsignndash;9.9g / dL, and mild at 10.0-11g / dl. The study was conducted on pregnant womens, 230 pregnant women and 40 non pregnant women have taken part in the study. Out of 230 pregnant women, 140 women are having decreased concentration of Hb, Vit-B12, folate, ferritin and transferrin.The present study concludes thatadequate iron and Folic acid intake is necessary for a healthy pregnancy, iron, and Folic acid supplementation should be considered early in these cases at their first meeting with healthcare professionals.&#13;
