Hello, A normal platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood. When you don?t have enough platelets, it?s called thrombocytopenia. Symptoms include easy bruising, and frequent bleeding from the gums, nose, or GI tract. Your platelet count drops when something is preventing your body from producing platelets. Please take guidance of a physician. Smoking can reduce the plateat counts.
