Endocrine deficiencies:

  • hypometabolism and ↓ O2 demand with thyroid
  • pituitary,
  • adrenal,
  • parathyroid disease → ↓ Epo;
  • can be normocytic or macrocytic

Explain by ChatGPT

The first line states that anemia is a common symptom of chronic kidney disease, and can be treated with erythropoietin and iron supplements. The second line states that endocrine disorders such as hypothyroidism can also cause anemia by reducing the body’s oxygen demand. Anemia caused by endocrine disorders can be either normocytic or macrocytic.
