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.
Not having enough iron in your body causes iron-deficiency anemia. Lack of iron usually is due to blood loss, poor diet, or an inability to absorb enough iron from food. When you lose blood, you lose iron. If you don't have enough iron stored in your body to make up for the lost iron, you'll develop iron-deficiency anemia. In women, long or heavy menstrual periods or bleeding fibroids in the uterus may cause low iron levels. Blood loss that occurs during childbirth is another cause of low iron levels in women.
