Objective:
The study aims to determine the picture risk factor-related anemia and the solution offered by searching the literature and reviewing it.
Method:
using literature studies. Article searches using online data-based Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar from 2019 to 2021. They have obtained as many as 20 articles based on inclusion criteria and relevance.
Result:
Anaemia in young women is still a severe problem among the community. There need to be early detection measures to quickly determine the incidence of anemia and describe anemia as one of the information for all circles young women. Women have a higher risk of anemia, especially young women. This is due to strict dietary habits to prevent weight gain, resulting in malnutrition due to the unmet intake of essential nutrients for the body. Whereas in adolescence, there is an increase in iron demand due to growth and menstruation. Therefore it is very important to provide smart solutions to the incidence of anemia. One that is offered is early detection so that prevention can be done. The use of information technology can be used to conduct early detection of anemia in adolescents because it has been widely utilized among the community, especially adolescents.
Conclusion:
From the entire literature review, it seems that nutritional status greatly influences the incidence of anemia suffered, and young women are a target for the best intervention. Early detection and use of technology are innovative solutions offered.

Disorders of Erythrocytes
Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.

Factors Affecting Erythropoiesis
Several factors influence the erythrocyte production rate, with tissue oxygen level being among the most critical. Intense exercise or high altitudes can cause tissue hypoxia, which triggers the kidneys to release more erythropoietin (EPO) into the bloodstream.
