ABSTRACT
The reproductive profile of 190 Ahom-Kachari mothers belonging to Mongoloid ethnic stock of Assam has been studied in relation to hemoglobin (Hb) E genotypes. No significant variations have been observed in the reproductive performance between the normal population and abnormal hemoglobin homozygote (HbEE) and heterozygote (HbAE) mothers. However, the reproductive wastage among the hemoglobin homozygote (HbEE) mothers has been observed to be double than the normal hemoglobin (HbAA) and abnormal hemoglobin heterozygote (HbAE) mothers. The reproductive performance parameters have also been compared with the other available studies.
