A member asked:

Im 28yrs old 5'8 153lbs male my platelets value was 187 should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not to worry: Normal platelet count is between 150000 and 450000. Therefore your count is within normal limits. If it has dropped significantly since your last count, follow up with another platelet count to make sure it's not continually dropping however.

Dr Friedlander and another doctor agreed
