Hello! I have a question regarding my thalesemia. I ve had thalesemia minor since I was born, I inherited this from my mother. I have only taken a slow iron pill when I am on my period, this is the extent of it, and find I can be fatigued sometimes as well, though I know it is because of this. My question is, my husband and I would like to start a family...do I need to go to hematologist before we start having a family or can I just go to a regular obgyn? In addition, I ve started taking prenatals but they have iron in them, should I be taking prenatals without iron? Thank you very much! Elizabeth
