Sexual & Reproductive Health-Care Services
the university provides many facilities for pregnant women, including the use of free health facilities
and regular check-ups. The university also organizes several seminars on sexual health for both males
and females.
Under the gracious sponsorship of the respected presedent of the AL-Mustaqbal University, the
Department of Anesthesia Technologies organized an awareness campaign titled "Protecting Pregnant
Women from Anemia." The campaign aimed to raise awareness about the increasing risk of anemia that
pregnant women face during pregnancy, which negatively impacts the health of both the mother and
the child. It also aimed to provide information to pregnant women about visiting certain centers that
care for expectant mothers. One of the most common issues faced is anemia, which results from a
deficiency of iron in the body. Iron is a key component of hemoglobin, responsible for transporting
oxygen to the body's cells and the brain. It is one of the fundamental pillars that enable the body to
carry out its vital functions. Exposure to anemia, especially during pregnancy, poses a threat to the
health of the expectant mother and the fetus. During pregnancy, the body produces an additional
amount of blood, up to 4 liters. Therefore, immediate medical consultation is necessary to inquire about
treatment options to avoid symptoms and complications. The risks of iron deficiency extend to the
fetus, as it requires significant amounts of iron during its development and needs to store it for up to 6
months after birth.
