Thrombocytopenia is diagnosed by having a blood sample taken and counting the platelets present in the sample. However, accurately determining the medical reason for this conditions is complex.
The patient's symptoms suggest the presence of thrombocytosis. Blood tests confirm the diagnosis. Bone marrow aspiration (removal of a tissue sample for microscopic examination) may also be performed.
A blood platelet count and bleeding time are common screening tests. If these tests confirm that the symptoms are due to impaired platelet function, further tests are done--such as platelet aggregation or an analysis of the platelet proteins

Gestational thrombocytopenia is coded to 649.31 - coagulation defects complicating pregnancy and 287.49 for secondary (gestational)thrombocytopenia.
Thrombocytosis is a condition where the body has more than 450,000 platelets. Having less than 150,000 platelets is called thrombocytopenia.
