NCT04505514

Brief Summary

The investigator's study is going to compare effectiveness of single dose intravenous iron in combination with oral iron versus oral iron monotherapy in correcting haemoglobin deficit, replenishing iron stores and improving clinical symptoms in women with post-partum anaemia after postpartum hemorrhage without increasing the rate of adverse outcomes.
