Women who are tired after a full night's sleep should see their doctor. They might have a common condition.

Dr Amir Khan says many women get anaemia due to blood loss from their period. This often starts in their 40s.

Dr Khan says symptoms include tiredness. Women often think they're tired because they're busy, but they might be anaemic.

Dr Khan also says recurring infections can be a warning sign. The body needs iron to fight infection.

Getting help is important if you think you have iron deficiency anaemia. It can cause illness and infection if left untreated.

The NHS says iron deficiency anaemia is the most common form of anaemia. It affects many people worldwide.

Other symptoms can include headaches and pale skin.

Restless leg syndrome is a rare sign of anaemia. A GP will do a blood test to confirm a diagnosis.

A GP will recommend treatment once they know the cause of your anaemia. This might include iron tablets.

Your doctor will do repeat blood tests to check your iron levels. Diet is also important to prevent anaemia.

A GP might prescribe iron tablets to help.

Iron is important for our bodies to produce red blood cells. We need to get iron from our diet.

The amount of iron we need varies depending on age and gender. Women need more iron than men.

Some foods can help us get the iron we need.

We should also cut down on tea, coffee, and milk, and foods that stop our bodies absorbing iron.
