Yes it is to some degree and corrections can be made keeping this in mind depending on the type of anaemia. If you would like to read more information on this subject go to the related link below(CORRECTION OF E.S.R. IN ANAEMIA)
How is ESR affected by anaemia? In anemia hematocrit is reduced and as a result the velocity of the upward flow of plasma is causing the red blood cell aggregates to fall faster. Macrocytic red cells that have a smaller surface-to-volume ratio also settle more rapidly.How is ESR affected by Menstruation? ESR is not effected by menstruation.How is ESR affected by kidney disease? ESR is raised as a result of the presence of Infection, Inflammation, Malignancy. As one of these symptoms are likely to be present it would lead to a raised ESRHow is ESR affected by thyroid disease? Unless there is Infection, Inflammation, Malignancy the ESR would remain unaffected.How is ESR affected by cancer? ESR becomes raised where there is a malignancy.How is ESR affected by Age? ESR becomes higher with ageHow is ESR affected by homorne disorder? ESR is not affected by hormone levelsHow is ESR affected by infections? ESR becomes raised when infection is present.How is ESR affected by sex? ESR is naturally higher in women than in men.How is erythrocyte sedimentation rate affected by inflamation? ESR becomes raised when infection is present.
High ESR, or erythrocyte sedimentation rate, can be related to anemia, cancers, kidney and thyroid disease, and pregnancy. Each cause affects a person differently, so you will need to consult with a doctor to find out the individual prognosis.
A raised ESR indicates that there is inflammation in the system somewhere It will not tell you where the inflammation is or what is causing it. If a elevated ESR is indicated then the next step is to find out what the cause for this is. Often when RA is suspected an ESR test and a rheumatoid factor test is done along with joint X rays to help confirm the diagnosis. It is not necessarily dangerous to have a high ESR however on the other hand it may signal something that could be.
Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) measures the body's degree of inflammation and high ESR level in blood can be controlled using ayurvedic treatment.
Here are the Ranges for the ESR in Healthy AdultsAdults Aged up to 50 mm/hr.Men---------0 to 15 mm/hrWomen-----0 to 20 mm/hrAdults Aged over 50 mm/hr.Men---------0 to 20 mm/hrWomen-----0 to 30 mm/hrESR = erythrocyte sedimentation rate.Information from Bottiger LE, Svedberg CA. Normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate and age. Br Med J 1967;2:85-7.Raised ESR indicates inflammation, infection, and Malignancy. It is a very popular test when carried out in relation to rheumatic diseases. ESR will not tel you where the problem is just hat there is a problem.

It is higher due to the blood loss and possible anemia.
ESR is the short form of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate. The rate of Red Blood Cells to Settle down if you keep blood in any standard glass tube. ESR is raised in many conditions like anemias ( low hemoglobin) and certain inflammatory conditions and infections. As such ESR is not diagnostic of any particular condition but when it is raised, it means there is definitely something wrong, not necessarily something serious.
High ESR, or erythrocyte sedimentation rate, can be related to anemia, cancers, kidney and thyroid disease, and pregnancy. Each cause affects a person differently, so you will need to consult with a doctor to find out the individual prognosis.
WHEN ESR increase in your body this shows that some where in your body is ifection such as connective tissue disorder( joints imflammations,cacerous disease)or there is infection in blood(may be genetic disorder such as sickel cell anemia) inshort,in body having high level of ESR facing destruction process.
-Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) is the rate at which red blood cells precipitate in a period of one hour.-This is a nonspecific test for inflammatory and lymphoproliferative disorders.-To measure ESR, non coagulated blood is placed in an upright tube, the rate at which red blood cells fall is measured and expressed in millimeters per hour.-Normal value of ESR is 3-7 mm/hr-Pro sedimentation factor is fibrinogen and anti sedimentation factor is -ve charge on RBCs.-ESR is raised in pregnancy, rheumatoid arthritis etc. and decreased in polycythemia, sickle cell anemia, hereditary spherocytosis, CHF.
ESR is a test to check erythrocyte sedimentation rate, which can indicate inflammation somewhere in the body. It is a nonspecific test. Causes can include obesity and anemia. Reducing ESR by using home remedies may be difficult unless you know the exact cause. Eating balanced meals and drinking plenty of fluids may help. Vitamins can help boost immunity, which may also help lower ESR.
because the sickle cell has small surface. and the ESR is proportional to surface area of red blood cell.
Iron deficiency can cause irritable bowel syndrome while also lowering blood pressure to a dangerous level, in terms this causes the ESR and TBD level in blood glucose to coagulate and can sometimes make your skin greenish tinted
It would cause the ESR to go up
