2. All of the above are at risk for an iron deficiency becauseBecause women lose blood during menstruation, women in general are at greater risk of iron deficiency anemia.Infants and children. Infants, especially those who were low birth weight or born prematurely, who don't get enough iron from breast milk or formula may be at risk of iron deficiency.
