Low tlc count in cbc

2019-04-29 13:21:52
My mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer stage 3 in April 2018. She underwent 8 cycles of monthly chemotherapy. Now she is on low dose chemotherapy daily tablet endoxan 50 mg. No surgery was done. Her latest CBC shows TLC 2500. What may be the reason for such low tlc??? And what could we do to improve the tlc count???
