Abstract
The effect of oral contraceptive agents (OCA) and intrauterine devices (IUD) on hemoglobin, serum iron and total iron binding capacity has been studied among women of low socioeconomic status attending maternal and child health centers (MCH). The hemoglobin level did not differ significantly between women use contraceptive measures and those who did not adopting contraceptive. However higher percent of women used (IUD) shows lower level of hemoglobin. Serum iron and total iron binding capacity were found to be high among women taking OCA. While those women use IUD shows high total iron binding capcily and less serum iron than those who use OCA.
