Purpose: We investigated the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components and erythrocyte parameters such as red blood cell count (RBC) and hemoglobin (Hb) levels, and their association with the risk of deep myometrial invasion in endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC). Patien...
A low hemoglobin level is referred to as anemia or low red blood count. A lower-than-normal number of red blood cells is referred to as anemia and hemoglobin levels reflect this number. There are many reasons (causes) for anemia. What causes low hemoglobin levels? Some of the more common...
Red blood cells, also called erythrocytes, contain a protein called hemoglobin. This remarkable molecule acts like a magnet for oxygen, picking it up in our lungs and releasing it to tissues and organs throughout our body. Without this constant supply of oxygen, our cells wouldn’t be able t...
What Is the Normal Red Blood Cell Count Range? The ability of the red blood cells to carry oxygen depends on the amount of hemoglobin. If the hemoglobin levels are low, the body is required to work a lot harder to supply oxygen to all the body tissues. Low hemoglobin level means the p...

What level of hemoglobin is dangerously low? Hemoglobin (Hb or Hgb) is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. A low hemoglobin count is generally defined as less than 13.5 grams of hemoglobin per deciliter (135 grams per liter) of blood for men andless than...
Aplastic Anemia and MDS: Causes, Symptoms, Treatment What does high white blood cells count indicate? Ten Ways to Increase Your Hemoglobin Levels Naturally Aplastic Anemia: What Red Blood Cell Count Says About Your Dizzy Spells Facts About Childhood Leukemia Thalassemia: What Every Parent Nee...
Hemoglobin is the protein molecule in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs. Hemoglobin is routinely measured as part of a routine blood test termed blood count (CBC). A complete blood count is...
Low white blood cell count (low WBC) and high white blood cell count (high WBC) on complete blood count (CBC) tests: Easy to understand entry on white blood cells (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes, T cells, and B
Hemoglobin is an essential part of red blood cells that delivers oxygen to all parts of the body. Both low and high levels can adversely affect our health. In this post, we will go over the symptoms of high and low hemoglobin and health issues and diseases that increase or decrease its ...
