How to treat thalassemia in couples

Thalassemia is a hereditary condition that is more likely to be passed on to the next generation when both spouses have thalassemia. Thalassemia can be treated by medication, surgery and blood transfusion. 1. Medication: Thalassemia patients can take drugs such as Desferrioxamine and Deferasirox to relieve symptoms. Folic acid can also be taken to increase the production of hemoglobin in red blood cells. 2. Surgery: Thalassemia patients with severe symptoms can be treated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and splenectomy. 3. Blood transfusion therapy: patients can be treated with blood transfusion therapy to maintain hemoglobin level in the body and reduce the occurrence of other complications. Both husband and wife are patients and need to do prenatal diagnosis. Drugs should be used under the guidance of doctors and avoid self-medication.
