Hi there 👋
I’ve checked your CBC report carefully — let’s break it down in simple words so you understand exactly what’s going on.
Key findings from your report:
Hemoglobin (Hb): 15.4 g/dL — Normal
RBC count: 6.03 million/µL — Slightly high
MCV (74 fL) and MCH (25.5 pg) — both slightly low
*RDW (16.9%) — mildly high
WBC and platelets — Normal
What this means:
This pattern (normal Hb, high RBC count, low MCV/MCH, and raised RDW) suggests your red cells are smaller than average — a condition called microcytosis.
The most common reasons are:
1. Early or latent iron deficiency — iron stores are low but hemoglobin hasn’t dropped yet.
2. Thalassemia trait (minor) — a mild genetic variation that makes RBCs smaller but usually doesn’t cause symptoms.
The good news: you do not have anemia, but you do need to find out why your RBCs are microcytic.
Next steps — tests you should do:
To clarify the cause:
Serum Ferritin & Serum Iron + TIBC (to assess iron stores)
HbA2 electrophoresis (to rule out Thalassemia minor)
If ferritin is low → treat iron deficiency.
If ferritin is normal and HbA2 is raised → it’s likely Thalassemia trait (harmless but important to know for family planning later).
What you should do know:
You don’t need to panic — these findings are very common in young men.
Avoid self-starting iron tablets without confirming ferritin first — unnecessary iron can harm if it’s actually Thalassemia trait.
Continue good nutrition — green leafy vegetables, lentils, jaggery, and vitamin C-rich foods.
Summary:
Your CBC is mostly normal except for smaller RBCs.
Likely early iron deficiency or Thalassemia carrier state.
Do the two confirmatory tests above to know the exact cause.
If you’d like, I can personally review your full lab report, check your ferritin and iron values, and design a simple correction plan (including safe iron dose and follow-up interval).
Message me directly on WhatsApp at nine three two six zero two zero five three six — I’ll explain your report in detail and guide you on what exactly to do next step-by-step.
