When you have a miscarriage does it smell bad?
it only smells bad if you have a yeast infection....go see your dr.
What are all the types of anemia in livestock?
There are 3 types of Livestock anemia. Infectious anemia, Nutrition anemia, and bovine anemia. Bovine anemia is found mostly in cows.
Is sickle cell anemia a point mutation?
An example of point-mutation is sickle-cell anemia. Sickle-cell disease is hereditary.
What are two ways someone can be anemic?
1) Blood loss (including ulcers)
2) Inability to produce new red blood cells. For their production, you need folic acid and B12, not just iron.
3) Illness. Some illnesses (such as cancer, diabetes, kidney or spleen disease, and AIDS) destroy red blood cells.
What do people affected with the sickle cell suffer with?
Peope with sickle cell disease suffer from pain crisis in arms,legs or ,chest. Well at least my daughter do. It is painful and she has to be admitted to hospital and receive morphine and. Iv fluids to relieve pain.
What is anemia and how is it treated?

How can sickle cell be prevented?
once youdidn't get it from birth, then it is not possible to get it when you grown up, but if you want to protect your future children not get the disease than it is better not to married from sickle cell disease man
What is the prognosis for hemolytic anemia?
In about 15% of cases, the baby is severely affected and dies before birth. Babies who survive pregnancy may develop kernicterus, which can lead to deafness, speech problems, cerebral palsy, or mental retardation.
What are the dangers of alcohol abuse and sickle cell trait?
People who have sickle cell should try to avoid consuming alcohol if at all possible. This is because sickle cell causes the patient to become dehydrated in the first place, so drinking alcohol would only exacerbate the problem.
What is the difference between haemophilia and anemia?
Hemophiliacs have normal platelet counts, they bleed because their clotting factors (proteins made by the livers created to help our blood clot when we are bleeding) level is less than 1% vs normal non bleeders @ 50%-100% Hemophiliacs are missing either Factor VIII or Factor IX in their blood (for Hemophilia A or B, respectively). It is due to a defective gene located on the X chromosome. The defect causes the liver (where clotting factors are made) to not produce the needed clotting factors etc
A person with abnormally low platelets is completely different situation/condition called thrombocytopenia and has different signs and symptoms from clotting factor problems like hemophilia.
Now, in contrast, anemia is having too few red blood cells (the cells that make blood red and carry oxygen to all of the cells and tissues in the body) circulating in the bloodstream. It is possible to have both anemia and a hemophilia, to have one without the other, or to have neither one.
What component of blood is impacted by sickle cell anemia?
Red Blood Cells. It is called
sickle cell because some of the red blood cells
are long and shaped like sickles. Although sickle
cell disease primarily affects African Americans,
it is also found in Hispanics, Italians, Greeks and
people of Mediterranean descent.

Can sickle cell anemia cause pneumonia?
no it dose not sickle cell anemia causes death only if African Americans
Is it safe for someone with sickle cell to have a baby?
As you already must know Sickle Cell disease is genetic, but the GOOD NEWS is there is no known risk that babies may develop sickle cell disease.
It's a good idea to first check with a genetic specialist and make your decision from there.
Good luck!
Intrinsic factor is a natural substance normally found in the stomach. You need this substance to absorb vitamin B12 from foods.
A lack of intrinsic factor leads to pernicious anemia and vitamin B12 deficiency, which can cause anemia and brain and nervous system (neurological) problems.
Alternative NamesIntrinsic factor - lack of
Causes, incidence, and risk factorsBabies that are born without intrinsic factor cannot properly absorb vitamin B12 starting around age 6 months. Children who have the juvenile type of lack of intrinsic factor tend to show signs and symptoms after age 10.
Older adults get pernicious anemia, which is caused by a lack of intrinsic factor production. This is usually due to an autoimmune disease that causes the stomach lining to waste away (atrophy). The stomach lining is where intrinsic factor is usually made.

What is the recommended treatment for pernicious anemia?
Pernicious anemia can be treated with injections of vitamin B12, and possibly with B12 vitamin pills. Pernicious anemia is a vitamin B12 deficiency disease, B12 is required to make healthy red blood cells and can normally be obtained from animal based foods, including, meats, fish, dairy products and eggs (but not plant foods), however, when people choose not to eat animal products, vegans for instance, they may suffer a B12 deficiency. Also, inadequate absorption can occur when there is an insufficient amount of a specific protein referred to as "intrinsic factor" in the body that is normally released by stomach cells.
Why there is dyspnoea in anemia?
Dyspnea is the medical term for shortness of breath. It can be a present symptom when one is having anemia because of the oxygen binding nature of our blood cells and being anemic means your blood cells have a deficiency.
Will a tattoo affect sickle cell disease?
No, tattoos will not effect the disease. Just be sure to take your regular antibiotics if needed to prevent any infections.
What tipe of food is good to eat if you have anemia?
lots and lots of iron :)

How does anemia affect your circulatory system?
Aneamia doesn't afffect your ciculatory system per se. It affects all the cells that make up your body and organs. They do not get enough oxygen to function.
What is the common name for sickle cell anemia?
It is a genetic disorder.
However...
It is also a protection against malaria.
For example, if a person were born in an area where malaria is present, he or she would likely die from the disease, unless he or she inherited 1 sickle cell gene.
Malaria viruses reproduce in the red blood cells. The parent virus invades a cell, and uses the cell as a host to grow more viruses.
With 1 sickle cell gene, malaria viruses that invade a red cell are quickly destroyed, since the red cell collapses, preventing the virus from reproducing.
But with 2 sickle cell genes, red cells collapse too easily; just a bruise can cause someone to become anemic when too many red cells collapse.
In the real world, people with no sickle cell genes died from malaria. People with 1 sickle cell gene survived. People with 2 sickle cell genes died from sickle cell anemia.
It was natures way of assuring that at least half of the population survive, but it is certainly a difficult thing to live with today, now that we can more easily treat malaria.
