Provision of iron (Fe) tablets in the city of Mataram is still low compared to other districts in NTB where not all pregnant women get iron (Fe)  tablets as many as 90 tablets (91.5%). The prevalence of pregnant women with the most anemia in 2018 is 117 people in Karang Pule Primary Health Center. This study aims to correlate the level of compliance with iron (Fe)  tablets consumption with anemia in pregnant women at Karang Pule Health Center.
