Prevalence of Postpartum Anemia and Associated Risk Factors in Najran Hospitals, Saudi Arabia; A Retrospective Observational Study

This study highlights a significant prevalence of postpartum anemia among women, strongly linked to anemia prior to labor. The severity of postpartum anemia is particularly greater in women with childbirth complications, those who have had one previous birth, or who were anemic before delivery. Comprehensive postpartum follow-up for changes to improve access to prenatal and postnatal care are essential strategies to reduce postpartum anemia and enhance maternal health outcomes.
