First of all, the signs of anemia are apparent to any doctor without asking about the last period. Secondly, menstruation doesn’t cause anemia because very little blood is actually lost over the course of a 5-7 days. Thirdly, yes, a rare few women can experience more substantial blood loss during menstruation, but that’s a whole separate thing that is a reproductive issue. And, in the case of having been attacked by a dragon, way less of a concern, a concern that isn’t addressed by the question: “When was your last period.”
Very good points, it is clear that my assumptions are not accurate, I will stick to what I know, and keep working in IT and leave healthcare to the doctors
