GlossaryThrombocytopenia

condition with abnormally low blood platelet count

Thrombocytopenia is a condition characterized by an abnormally low number of platelets in the blood. Platelets are crucial for blood clotting, so having too few can lead to excessive bleeding and bruising. This condition can result from various factors, including bone marrow disorders, certain medications, or autoimmune diseases.
