pancytopenia is a serious thing, it can occurs due to many reasons like severe viral infection, megaloblastic anemia, aplastic anemia, myelodysplastiv syndrome and many more. your bleeding symptoms are due to low platelets count. go to the hospital and take treatment imidiatly. after patient become stable, search for the cause of pancytopenia. bone marrow examination can be done for the diagnosis.
