Causes of iron deficiency anemia include: 1  Blood loss. Blood contains iron within red blood cells. 2  A lack of iron in your diet. Your body regularly gets iron from the foods you eat. 3  An inability to absorb iron. Iron from food is absorbed into your bloodstream in your small intestine.  Pregnancy.
Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia throughout the world. Iron is required for hemoglobin formation; if the supply is insufficient to produce normal quantities of hemoglobin, the bone marrow ultimately is forced to produce cells that are smaller than normal and poorly filled with hemoglobin.
