What Does MCH Value Of 34.3 Indicate?
Question: My MCH test result is 34.3.
Brief Answer:
See below
Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.
MCH= Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin.
This is the average amount of hemoglobin mass found in each red blood cell. This is helpful in the interpretation of red blood cells numbers on a full blood count. The normal range may vary from one laboratory to another but normal values range from 26-33. Your value of 34.3 is a bit over the upper limit. I will like you to check if you meant MCHC (mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration) or MCH as this value is normal for MCHC and not MCH..
I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well and thank you so much for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarification if need be.
