Treatment and symptoms of Packed cell volume 17 % | Diet for low Packed cell volume level 17 %

Low Packed cell volume level of 17 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal packed cell volume (PCV) of 17 may point to blood disorders, hydration status, or oxygen-carrying capacity. A PCV reading of 17 represents the percentage of red blood cells in the blood and is essential for evaluating conditions like anemia, polycythemia, or fluid imbalances. Abnormal PCV can affect your energy levels, cause fatigue, and signal underlying medical issues that need targeted treatment or further investigation. While there are numerous treatments to consider, diet change is your most critical first step.
