IV iron for anemia from heavy uterine bleeding
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether giving iron through a vein (IV) helps improve anemia caused by heavy uterine bleeding. You may join if you were treated in the emergency department, can go home, and can return for follow-up checks in the next several weeks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have ongoing or ongoing-over-time heavy uterine bleeding (not just one brief episode)
- Your anemia is moderate to severe, with hemoglobin 9.0 or lower
- Your iron stores are low, with ferritin 30 or lower
- You can go home from the emergency department after treatment
- You can come back for visits at 3 and 6 weeks (and you can be reached by phone)
