Objective: – To study the hemoglobin in all pregnant women in different trimester of pregnancy and compare them with healthy non pregnant women. This case-control design study included 400 healthy pregnant Materials and Methods: women sub-divided into three groups 1st, 2nd and 3rd trimesters, and 400 healthy non pregnant women. A drop of blood was placed on two slides and smears were prepared. The collected samples were run in fully automated 5-part differential hematology analyzer Transasia Model-XS-800i. Detail parameters hemoglobin were obtained and compared for different trimesters of pregnancy. The study population comprised 400 normal pregnant w Results: omen and 400 healthy non pregnant women (control group). Hemoglobin content and hematocrit value were significantly lower in pregnant women compared to non-pregnant women. The estimation of anemia prevalence is an Conclusions: important step for health policy makers, as hemoglobin estimation is the most important parameter to start supplementation of iron or removing other causes of anemia to prevent unfavorable outcome.
