major who requires blood transfusions once a
month or every three weeks in order to stay
alive.
Types of thalassemia
• Beta thalassemia carrier
Beta thalassemia major
Beta thalassemia minor
• Alpha thalassemia carrier
Alpha thalassemia plus
Alpha thalassemia zero
Difference between alpha thalassemia and beta thalassemia
Alpha thalasemia occurs if there are problems with some or
all of the alph-globin genes. Beta thalasemia occurs when
there are problems with one or both of the beta-globin genes
