What causes high Platelet count and low Vitamin D?

High Platelet count and low Vitamin D can be caused by many reasons.

If your Platelet count is in between 150 thou/uL and 450 thou/uL and your Vitamin D is in between 75 nmol/L and 250 nmol/L then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Platelet count and Vitamin D 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 Platelet count levels include:

• Sepsis
• Platelets may be used up quickly in serious conditions, such as disseminated intravascular coagulation
• Bone marrow damage
• Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
• Viral infections such as mononucleosis

Normal range of Platelet count : 150 - 450 thou/uL
