She is an old patient of Hypothyroidism. Recently her Homglobin came down to 6.5. Her Urticaria problem has reappeared again. Whether all are interelated.

Hi,
Looking at the history and the various diagnosis, I do not think urticaria directly could cause anemia.
It is my opinion, that probably associated malnutrition could be the major cause. Hypothyroidism could cause anemia, but I think it would be under control.
Malnutrition could be the more common cause in the present scenario.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
