Such a high prevalence has been explained by the fact that dietary intakes are not sufficient to meet the iron requirements due to iron losses in menses.

Iron Intake and Iron Absorption

1980
Accumulating evidences demonstrated that the amount of iron potentially available from food depends not only from the amount of iron intake but from the nature of that iron and the composition of the meal in which it is consumed. Thus, the total iron content of a diet is a poor indicator of the amount of iron that is really absorbed and utilized. It is
