Laboratory: Complete blood count (microcytic hypochromic anemia) Imaging: Ultrasound to assess biometry to exclude fetal growth restriction. Women will be divided in two groups with 20 in each group, the first group will receive one tab of ferrous gluconate 300mg administered orally twice per day for 4 weeks and the second group will receive lactoferrin sachets 100mg with ferrous gluconate 300mg twice per day for 4 weeks Patients were assigned to take the medication orally; once daily before breakfast, and Pravotin (100 sachets were be dissolved each in ¼ glass of water and taken before breakfast).
