Objective: The aim of this study is to calculate hemoglobin (Hb) levels and find the prevalence of anemia in gynecological cancer patients undergoing cancer treatments including chemotherapy and radiotherapy attending Princess Noorah Oncology Center in King Abdul Aziz Medical City in Jeddah.  Method: A cross-sectional chart review study was conducted in gynecological cancer patients receiving chemotherapy/radiotherapy to find the prevalence of anemia in the period between 2016 and 2018. All data were collected from the electronic medical records using a data collection sheet.  Results: A total of 107 female patients who had gynecologic cancers and received chemotherapy/radiotherapy were included. Ninety percent (90.7%) of them developed anemia during the treatment course.  Conclusion: The prevalence of anemia in patients with gynecological cancers during their active treatment was high. This is attributed to the chemotherapy and radiotherapy they were receiving that affected their Hb levels. Better monitoring and, in severe cases, blood transfusion could be beneficial.
