The "normal" range starts at 125,000...so yes, 87 is extremely bad.
The PLT (platelet) count blood test measures the number of platelets in a person's blood. Platelets are essential for blood clotting, and abnormal levels can indicate various health issues, such as bleeding disorders, bone marrow problems, or certain diseases. A low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) can lead to excessive bleeding, while a high count (thrombocytosis) may increase the risk of clotting disorders. The test is commonly included in routine blood work and can help diagnose underlying medical conditions.
no need to fast for these tests.
yes it is...there is a chances of bleeding if it further drops to the level below 20000
87 degrees Fahrenheit is much warmer.
87 mm is equivalent to approximately 3.4 inches. Direct Conversion Formula 87 mm* 1 in 25.4 mm = 3.42519685 in
It's abnormal (low).

What is the Platelet Count Test?
Is a platelet count of 134 with protein in urine normal
Average platelet count for adult is 250,000-450,000
When the platelet count falls to less than 100,000mm3
Is my platelet count too low at 88
In the context of a platelet count, K stands for thousands.
When the platelet count falls to less than 100,000mm3
1 unit prp increases platelet count by 10,000.
A normal platelet count is 150,000 to 450,000 per microliter of circulating blood.
In a hematology test, PLT stands for platelet count. Platelets are small cell fragments in the blood that help with clotting and preventing excessive bleeding. Abnormal platelet counts can indicate various medical conditions such as thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) or thrombocytosis (high platelet count).
