Suggest Treatment To Lower MPV Count In Blood

Hello. I recently had bloodwork done as a part of a study I participated in. The results were very good, although my MPV was 12.3 and the healthy range listed in the results are 7.3-11.4. Should I be concerned and/or what might I do to lower my score into the suggested range?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. MPV suggest mean platelet volume. It is the average size of platelets. Slight variations in size of platelets are common. It may be due to some reactive changes. Your size is almost normal. So no need to worry about that. No any treatment is required. Just be relaxed.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
