No, Generally, your: Anemia would have to be significant before you experience an impact on your periods. Indeed, anemias emerge commonly among women because they have a monthly blood loss. Sometimes these anemias can be quite significant, suggesting that menses can proceed unabated, even in the context of significant anemia. The rx for the anemia, which works to normalize counts, would not negatively impact periods.
