A Genetic Blood Disorder That Affects Hemoglobin Production
About Thalassemia
Thalassemia is a genetic blood disorder in which the body produces insufficient or abnormal hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen in red blood cells. As a result, red blood cells break down more quickly, leading to anemia and related symptoms, and care is typically overseen by a thalassemia treatment doctor.
This is a lifelong condition that requires regular medical monitoring and appropriate management to maintain overall health.
