How to increase platelet count in blood during pregnancy?
My recent report showed platelets a bit low and doc has asked me to monitor it. Im in my third trimester and honestly a little tensed about it. Any foods or things that helped raise the count for you?
Low platelets in pregnancy is something to take seriously and only your doctor should guide the management. Mine were monitored and the gynac decided everything based on the numbers. Please dont rely on home tricks for this, get proper medical follow up.
My doctor said mild dips in platelets can happen in pregnancy and are often monitored rather than treated, depending on how low. She advised a good balanced diet but stressed it must be tracked through blood tests. Definitely let your gynac decide based on your reports.
Beta, elders often suggest things like papaya leaf, but for platelets in pregnancy please dont try such remedies without asking your doctor. Eat well and nourishing, but follow the gynac strictly on this. It is too important to guess.
