This single-center prospective cohort study was conducted from May 2015 to May 2020 at Shifa International Hospital, Islamabad, Pakistan. It included all patients above the age of 18 undergoing Roux en Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery for weight loss. All patients included had a body mass index above 40 kg/m2 without co-morbidities and a body mass index between 30-35kg/m2 with comorbidities. Iron studies, complete blood count, and lipid profile were done pre-operatively and post-operatively at 12, 24, and 36 months. There were 134 (67%) females and 66 (33%) males. A total of 110 (55%) people were iron deficient preoperatively. The mean age calculated for iron deficient participants was 42.25 while that for iron-sufficient was 46.13. Also, the mean preoperative BMI for iron deficient patients was 45.5 while for iron sufficient was 46.2. Overall, the mean hemoglobin before surgery was 13.5 which decreased to 12.9 at 12 months, 12.5 at 24 months, and 11.7 at 36 months postoperatively. There was an improvement in all comorbidities such as hypertension, type-2 diabetes, sleep apnea, quality of life, depression, osteoarthritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and dyslipidemia after RYGB surgery. Iron deficiency increases after RYGB, the deficiency is more profound in pre-menopausal women and people with baseline iron deficiency.
