This condition is frequently associated with symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, and compromised immune function. Conventional treatment and preventive measures primarily focus on dietary adjustments and iron supplementation. This review aims to systematically identify herbal plants with traditional applications in the management of iron deficiency anemia.<br> <b>Methods: </b>To investigate the efficacy of native Iranian herbal plants in the management of iron deficiency anemia, this study commenced with the formulation of a clear research problem and objectives. Subsequently, a comprehensive literature search was conducted utilizing a combination of scientific databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science.
