Megaloblastic Anemia
What is Megaloblastic Anemia?
Megaloblastic anemia is a type of anemia characterized by the presence of abnormally large red blood cells (megaloblasts) in the bone marrow.
It is often caused by a deficiency in vitamin B12 or folic acid, which are essential for the production of healthy red blood cells.
Common symptoms include fatigue, weakness, and pale skin.
Treatment typically involves addressing the underlying deficiency, which may involve dietary changes, supplementation, or other medical interventions.
