摘　　要：Pre-menopausal women are at risk for iron deficiency due to menstrual blood losses. The prevalence rates （PR） of iron depletion, iron deficiency anemia （IDA）, and iron deficiency were 34.4%, 15.1% and 49.5% in pre-menopausal non-pregnant women respectively in China.1 Traditionally, the diagnosis of iron deficiency relies on the hematological markers （hemoglobin （HGB）, mean corpuscular volume （MCV）, mean corpuscular hemoglobin （MCH）, red cell distribution width （RDW）） and biochemical markers （serum ferritin （SF）, serum iron （SI）, transferrin saturation （TS）, total iron-binding capacity （TIBC））. Recently, the reticulocyte hemoglobin content （CHr） is considered to be used as a marker of iron deficiency.2 The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic efficiency of CHr with the old markers in diagnosis of iron deficiency in Chinese pre-menopausal women.Pre-menopausal women are at risk for iron deficiency due to menstrual blood losses.
