Absence of Intrinsic Factor treatment in Monterrey

The absence of intrinsic factor refers to the lack of a substance produced in the stomach that the body needs to absorb vitamin B12, which can lead to a type of anemia.

How it shows up: It usually causes fatigue, paleness, tingling in the hands or feet and, in some cases, difficulty concentrating.

Origin: It may be due to stomach disorders that reduce the production of this essential substance.

Who to see? The gastroenterologist evaluates how the stomach functions, and the hematologist studies the effect on the blood. If fatigue and tingling persist, it is a good idea to discuss it with a professional for an appropriate evaluation.
