A member asked:
Good afternoon doctors. what could it mean if my platelets count is within the normal range (221), but the mpv is low (6.9)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Generally, a normal MPV blood test is 7 fL to 9 fL (femtoliters) for non-pregnant adults. 6.9 is not meaningfully different from 7 and is not a cause for concern.
