About Thalassemia

Thalassemia are inherited blood disorders. “Inherited” means they’re passed on from parents to children through genes. It is very serious blood disease that begins in early childhood.

Thalassemia causes the body to make fewer healthy red blood cells and less Hemoglobin than normal. Hence, people who have Thalassemia can have mild or severe anemia. If untreated, death is imminent.
