Thalassemia

Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that affects your body’s ability to produce effective hemoglobin, a crucial protein in red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body. When hemoglobin production is reduced or abnormal, it leads to fewer healthy red blood cells, resulting in a condition called anemia.
