Anemia can be caused by a great amount of things. The most common reason is through iron deficiency, which is linked to other illnesses that cause anemia. Or, through malnutrition where the patient is not getting the right amount of vitamins or minerals in their diet. The protein hemoglobin contains iron, which is why the hemoglobin levels drop at times when there is anemia
To be diagnosed with depression, the symptoms must be present for at least 2 weeks.
