BackgroundFemales are more likely than males to suffer from anemia. There have been many studies investigating the nutritional qualities of traditional plants. The of this study was to assess the effect of fenugreek seeds on hemoglobin and PCV values in 20-30 years old females.Material and methodsBaseline hematological tests were obtained from 10 females aged 20-30 years. Supplementation of the standard amount of fenugreek was given to the population. After 48 days the same hematological parameters were analyzed as a post-test. The results of the pre- and post-test analysis were compared by using a paired-sample t-test. Relevant details were also collected and analyzed.ResultsThe mean value of hemoglobin before supplementation (Hb1) and hemoglobin after supplementation (Hb2) was 12.3200 and 11.3300 respectively and the mean value of packed cell volume before (PCV1) and after supplementation (PCV2) was 36.7970 and 35.4700, respectively. This shows that there is a mild decrease in hemoglobin and PCV values after fenugreek supplementation, but not at a statistically significant level.ConclusionsWithin the limitations of our pilot study, we conclude that fenugreek has no significant effect on Hemoglobin and PCV values and can’t be used as an exact supplement to cure anemia.
