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)

This trial tests a type of IV iron called ferric carboxymaltose to treat children with iron deficiency anemia in the emergency department. It aims to find a safe and effective way to quickly raise hemoglobin levels.
This early study tests whether Monoferric, an IV iron medicine, safely and effectively treats iron deficiency during pregnancy when iron by mouth hasn’t worked or isn’t suitable. It may help you raise iron levels and improve anemia while using care your team already recommends.
This trial compares giving iron through a vein (IV) versus by mouth (oral) to treat iron-deficiency anemia during pregnancy. It may help you and your baby by finding which method works better and fits safely during mid-pregnancy.
