Risk factors for anaemia among pregnant women: A cross-sectional study in Upper East Region, Ghana.

Despite several Ghanaian health policies to combat AIP, AIP is still on the rise. It becomes imperative to identify geographic-specific factors for developing appropriate interventions for the management of AIP.
