A decrease in the blood platelet count is known as thrombocytopenia. The bone marrow, which is a spongy tissue inside the bones, produces blood platelet cells. These cells circulate in the blood and help in blood clotting. Blood platelet count varies between 1,50,000 and 4,50,000 per micro liter of blood. Dropping of the platelet count below this range is known as thrombocytopenia. Homeopathy treats various diseases by following a holistic approach. Homeopathic treatment for thrombocytopenia is based on the individual symptoms of the person. Dealing with thrombocytopenia under homeopathy requires a detailed case taking. The site of bleeding must be accurately noted. Following this, a complete analysis and evaluation of the case should be done to finalize the homeopathic prescription.
What are the Causes of Thrombocytopenia?
Thrombocytopenia can be inherited or acquired. The term inherited means a genetic transmission of this condition from parents to offspring. Acquired thrombocytopenia implies that the person is not born with this condition, but he has developed it at a later stage. Thrombocytopenia arises either from a decreased production of platelets in the bone marrow or when the destruction of platelets is higher than the rate of its generation. Another reason for thrombocytopenia is the trapping of too many platelets in the spleen which may happen because of an enlarged spleen. A decrease in the production of platelets may arise from cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma; viruses like rubella, mumps, HIV and Epstein-Barr virus; aplastic anemia; excess alcohol intake; inherited syndromes like Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, thrombocytopenia absent radius syndrome and May-Hegglin anomaly; or decreased production of thrombopoietin by the liver. An increase in the breakdown of platelets may arise from autoimmune diseases like lupus, and is known as immune thrombocytopenia; idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura; thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura; medicines like heparin, sulfa drugs, anticonvulsants; virus like cytomegalovirus, mononucleosis; and pregnancy.
Signs and Symptoms
The signs and symptoms of thrombocytopenia include purpura, petechiae spots, bleeding from the nose and gums, and blood in the urine and stool. Purpura refers to purplish spots or blotches on the skin which are less than 3 mm in diameter. These arise from internal bleeding of small blood vessels. Petechiae are pinpoint hemorrhagic spots, red or purple, on the skin. Other symptoms of thrombocytopenia are prolonged bleeding from wounds, cuts, and excessive bleeding during menses. General weakness and fatigue may also be there. Sometimes a person may suffer from thrombocytopenia without displaying any of these symptoms, and platelets may be found to be low on doing routine blood tests.
Homeopathic Medicines for Thrombocytopenia
Homeopathic medicines for thrombocytopenia include Crotalus Horridus, Iodum, Latrodectus Mactans, Phosphorus, Secale Cor, and Bothrops Lanciolatus. These medicines help in controlling hemorrhages and raising blood platelets. A person should take homeopathic treatment for thrombocytopenia under the supervision of a homeopathic physician. Avoid self-medication.

Hi Doctor,
My wife is suffering from ITP since the last few years.
her platelet count drops to around 30-40,000. Her Hematologist prescribed ElRomo tablets which certainly bring up the count to 10o,000 + but they drop soon after. Also, this drug causes severe stomach upset which leads to dehydration.
She is wanting to try homeopathy to maintain her platelet count to 50,000 to 100,000.
Kindly suggest if there is any homeopathic remedy. .Thanks
Hi Doctor,
My platelet count falls for some reason. Hematologist is doing tests over a period to confirm blood platelet count remains same or changes. I have been having heavy periods for long and being anemic for long. I feel it got worst after I had covid this year. Post covid I had taken Shingles vaccine. Ever since my platelets keep dropping. Please advise homeopathic remedy.

If syzazium Q (mt) is able to reduce you blood sugar level then continue it if not try 1x annutation if not improving then try gymnema sylvesta and chiphlendra indica in mother tinctures.

I am a midwife in the US, I am very interested in homeopathy and really just learning. I am wondering what your thoughts are on Gestatonal Thrombocytopenia, since it is more a immune modulated condition.
I currently have a mom who is 39 weeks and we discovered a week ago a plt count of 99K, yesterday 96K,
She does have some history of Lyme, now supposed to be cleared, but this too is autoimmune. I am very interested in your thoughts.
Hello, I an a Chilean senior citizen currently treating an advanced prostate cancer with bone metastastis under hormone therapy (Lupron) since November 2023.
Since then my platelets counts have been dropping annd now remain in the range of 20,000-30,000.
I started taking Platenza from India since early March and recently I added a mix of pomegranate and aloe vera juices with coconut water. How long shall this natural treatment take to increase my platelets?
Also, Can I add an homeopathic remedy and how can I get it from Chile.
Many thanks for your advice.
All the best

I am a patient of stiff person syndrome (SPS) of lower limbs and i am anti GAD positive. Due to this auto immune disease my platelets count always goes down. Today my count is 80 thousands. Some time it goes even 50 thousand. Is there any medicine in homeopathy without any side effect to boost up platelets count? For platelets I take papaya capsules 250 mg twice a day. Papaya leaves juice one cup twice a day. Sometimes beetroot juice.
Thanks

Hello Dr Sharma,
My husband was diagnosed with ITP on May 1st, 2023. He was given Prednisone, IVIG, and N-plate which he is continuing until now. The hematologist keeps on fluctuating the dosage according to his platelet count. Now a new medication is introduced instead of n-plate which is doptelet. The prednisone is on a taper, but is increased when the platelet count goes down. Please advice as how to help my husbands situation.
