Is Thalassemia a Genetic Disease?

Wed, 21 May 2025

Did you know that thalassemia is a hereditary blood disorder passed from parents to children? This condition causes red blood cells to break down easily, leading to anemia, pale skin, and fatigue. In Indonesia, approximately 3–8% of the population carries the thalassemia gene—many without even knowing it. Symptoms range from mild to severe, depending on the type: minor, intermedia, or major. Early detection is essential to prevent complications and improve quality of life.
