A member asked:
Can you tell me if my sister has anemia because of a pregnancy that did not go so well. will she develop leukemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Preg causes anemia: No one can tell you specifically about your sister without examining her. In general, pregnancy often causes iron deficiency anemia. That does not increase the risk of leukemia.
