Abstract

Abstract   

The present study was conducted to verify the relationship between Hemoglobin (Hb) concentration (con), Reduced glutathione (GSH), and  malondialdehyde (MDA) levels  in 50  healthy woman and  100 pregnant anemic women .( anemic pregnant women) were divided into three groups, group 1 consisted of (9) patients with first trimester, group 2 contained 57 patients with second trimester, and  group 3 comprised 34 patients with third trimester. the result exhibits a significant decrease (p<0.001)  in blood  hemoglobin concentration in pregnant anemic groups comparison to the control groups . In contrast, a significant increase (p<0.001)  in MDA level in sera of women with pregnant, also a significant highly  decrease was found in GSH  level  in sera of pregnant women in  second and third trimester (p<0.001),While there was no significant differences in GSH level for women in first trimester as compared with control groups. Average  total  Hb con  were observed in the first trimester was higher  than  Hb con in the second trimester , while , largest decrease was found in the third trimester, with a drop relative to the control serum total Hb con.
