    Glossary Erythrocytosis

    increased number of red blood cells in the bloodstream

    Erythrocytosis, also known as polycythemia, is a condition characterized by an increased number of red blood cells in the bloodstream. This can lead to thicker blood, which may cause complications such as blood clots, strokes, or heart attacks. It can be caused by factors like living at high altitudes, chronic lung disease, or certain genetic mutations.
