What causes high Phosphorus and low Hematocrit?
High Phosphorus and low Hematocrit can be caused by many reasons.
If your Phosphorus is in between 2.5 mg/dL and 4.5 mg/dL and your Hematocrit is in between 40 % and 50 % then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Phosphorus and Hematocrit respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.
Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease Phosphorus levels include:
- Increased blood calcium
- Diabetic ketoacidosis (after treatment)
- Liver disease
- Rickets and osteomalacia (due to vitamin D deficiencies)
- Kidney failure
