Classification of Anemia
- Hypoproliferative anemias: In hypoproliferative anemias, the marrow cannot produce adequate numbers of erythrocytes. Examples include iron deficiency anemia, vitamin B12 deficiency anemia (pernicious anemia), folate deficiency anemia, aplastic anemia, or anemia of chronic disease
- Hemolytic anemias: In hemolytic anemias, there is premature destruction of erythrocytes that results in the liberation of hemoglobin from the erythrocytes into the plasma. Examples include sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, or drug-induced hemolytic anemia
- Bleeding anemias: In bleeding anemias, there is loss of erythrocytes due to hemorrhage. Examples include trauma-induced bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding (ulcerative colitis), menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia), or surgery-related bleeding
