Hi i do care for your concern.
The platelet count that you have mentioned is well below the normal range.
Since you have mentioned that you have taken after your periods, its wise to take a fresh blood testing for platelet count.
If found to be abnormal then consult your physician as you need more evaluation.
Hope i have answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask.
Thank you.
