Effect of alcohol consumption on haemoglobin level among non-pregnant reproductive age women in Ethiopia: a cross-sectional secondary data analysis of the 2016 Ethiopian Demographic Health Survey.

This study showed that nearly a quarter of non-pregnant women in Ethiopia were found to be anaemic. Alcohol consumption increases haemoglobin concentration. Further cohort or experimental studies are therefore needed to further assess the relationship between alcohol consumption and haemoglobin level among Ethiopian populations.
