[[Anemia of prematurity]] may be caused by a combination of [[blood loss]], decreased [[red blood cells]] production, and shortened lifespan of [[red blood cells]].
Common causes of [[anemia of prematurity]] include [[preterm birth]], [[blood loss]] during [[phlebotomy]], increased destruction of [[red blood cells]], and decreased production of [[red blood cells]]. [[Iron]], [[vitamin B6]], [[vitamin E]], and [[folate]] deficiencies are less common causes of [[anemia of prematurity]].
