Why Kidney Disease Causes Anemia

Healthy kidneys produce erythropoietin (EPO) that tells your bone marrow to make red blood cells. When kidneys are damaged, they produce less EPO, leading to fewer red blood cells and anemia.

Treatment Options

Treatment may include iron supplements, erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs), dietary changes, and in severe cases, blood transfusions. Our team monitors your hemoglobin levels regularly and adjusts treatment as needed.
