Mean transferrin levels (in mg/dL) of the subjects were 322.381 (153.179 SD) 379.242 (193.685 SD) and 554.069 (196.964 SD) in the first, second and third trimesters respectively showing an increasing trend from the first to the third trimester. Analysis of variance and subsequent sidak procedure showed that the mean transferrin levels between the first and third trimester was statistically significant (p value = 0.025). The means of the first and the second trimester as well as second and third trimester were not statistically significant from each other.  aActa Medica Philippina,1997 33 ( 3 ) pages 120-126 2aTransferrins 2aPregnant Women 2aPregnancy Trimester, Third1 aDavid, Ferri 1 aRex, Rose 1 aVerano,  Ma.
