Is Hematocrit 24.7 low, normal or dangerous? What does Hematocrit level 24.7 mean?

📅 Medical Review Date: November 3, 2025

Hematocrit 24.7

Your Hematocrit level of 24.7 is a Low Hematocrit level.

A hematocrit level of 24.7 % usually means the proportion of red blood cells in the blood is reduced. It suggests anemia. Low levels of hematocrit can cause fatigue, weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, dizziness, headache, cold intolerance, and chest pain. This can be caused by iron deficiency, blood loss, bone marrow failure, kidney disease, or vitamin deficiencies. Further tests are often needed to identify the cause and guide appropriate treatment.

Low Hematocrit levels may indicate underlying health problems. The normal range is typically between 40 % and 50 %. If your levels are outside this range, it's important to speak with a healthcare provider. Consulting a doctor is recommended to determine the cause and appropriate next steps.
