it is in megaloblastic anaemia
it is in b12 and folic acid deficiency
There are several things that might cause a low MCH test result. Some of these things include blood loss, low iron, or microcytic anemia.
That is not possible. There is something wrong with your results. Tell your MLT/MT to rerun your CBC/MCH test. Spherocytes can cause MCH/MCHC to go high, but it is impossible. Spherocyte is a small red blood cell that have no central pallor
mean corpuscular haemoglobin
Most often this is due to iron deficiency, but it can also occur in other red blood cell production (hematopoietic) abnormalities.
it is in b12 and folic acid deficiency
iron deficiency
No, but lack of iron could cause a low MCH
normal range of mch is 27-32pg. mch means corpuscular hemoglobin. i think it can be high in polycythemia.
i have a reading of 34.7 result of MCH what does that mean
MCH in blood work refers to Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin. This is the concentration of hemoglobin in blood cells. High MCH can mean macrocytic anemia, which results from a deficiency in vitamin B12 or folic acid.

MCV(mean cell volume). Increased mcv is a sign of macrocytosis which may be related to anaemia due to deficiency of vit.B12 and/or folic acid with the occurence of megaloblasts in the bone marrow.
