Platelet levels can drop due to various factors, including bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, infections, certain medications, and nutritional deficiencies (such as vitamin B12 or folate deficiency). Conditions like thrombocytopenic purpura or liver disease can also contribute to decreased platelet production or increased destruction. Additionally, excessive alcohol consumption and certain cancers can negatively impact platelet counts. Regular monitoring and consultation with a healthcare provider are essential for identifying the underlying cause.
