Low Platelet Count Causes
Low platelet count causes are diverse.
It is not a simple question to answer.
People who suffer from itp blood disorder like others who suffer from many other chronic diseases have a multiple causes.
Cancer as a cause of thrombocytopenia Cancer treatment is a common cause.
Chemotherapy and radiation are known to reduce the bone marrow production of platelets in conjunction with other cells.
But also cancer itself can affect the normal platelet count range.
Lymphoma and Leukemia are cancers that affect the bone marrow itself and result in thrombocytopenia.
The normal platelet count range is from 150,000 to 400,000.
When it decreases to fewer than 40,000 problems may result.
Also some medications can be part of the low platelet count causes.
Heparin is known to cause autoimmune reaction against platelets similar to ITP blood disorder.
Life-style is a big predisposing factor.
I believe that our daily habits make the body prone to ITP and kind of prepare the way.
When the predisposed body is exposed to agents such as heparin, vaccines and other factors it then reacts with thrombocytopenia purpura.
Well at least that is the way I understand it with my holistic mind.
Many other people may differ in opinion.
Since there are many causes for low platelets it is hard for medical science to pin point a specific cause and develop a specific drug that attacks this cause.
Natural medicine does not try to hit ITP blood disorder with a magic bullet.
But tries to create a state of health and in this way maintain a range of platelets.
