A member asked:
Is a count of 131 platlets serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Presumably: the units on the platelets is in the thousands. Depends on the lab but generally 110 thousand to about 300 thousand is normal range. While numbers below the normal range may indicate a problem, bleeding risk doesnt go up until the platelet count is quite low, about 20% of normal.
