Thirty anemic women using intra uterine device participated in this study. Subjects were divided into two groups, fifteen in each group. The first group was group (A) who performance the aerobic exercise; and the second group was group (B) who performance the resistive exercise. Their age ranged from 20-35 years. Their heamoglobin level was less than 12 g/dL and more than 9 g/dL. Their body mass index (BMI) was from 20-29kg/m2. Serum Ferritin and Hb level were assessed in each group before and after treatment. Results showed that there was a statistically significant increase in the post treatment mean values of all tested variables (Hb level and Serum Ferritin) compared with the pre treatment ones in both groups (A) and (B) (p < 0.05). Additionally, there was a statistically significant increase in the post treatment mean values of all measured variables in group (A) compared to group (B) (p < 0.05).It can be concluded that both aerobic and resisted exercise programs have significant effects on Hb level and serum iron and could be included in the intervention programs of iron deficiency anemia. In addition, patients with iron deficiency anemia may get additional benefit in improving their Hb level and serum Serum Ferritin through aerobic training program more than the resistive training program ER -
