Thank you for writing.
Hello. Thank you for writing.
I can give you some general information. Thrombocytopenia refers to a low blood platelet count. Platelets are fragments of larger cells that circulate in the blood and play a role in preventing excessive bleeding. People with low blood platelets do not commonly display symptoms, but may be at risk for serious bleeding during and following trauma or surgery. Thrombocytopenia has many causes, including cancer, medications, alcohol, disease, and infections.Some causes are unknown.
There are no vitamins that can cure this condition but a healthy diet filled with leafy veg and fresh fruit can help.

Best,
Susan
