Question : Manual diff showed myleocytes and promyleocytes

Answered by Dr. Surendiran Gaj (13 hours later)

Brief Answer: Absolutely normal in pregnancy, if mildly elevated Detailed Answer: Hi there, Thanks for writing to us, From your medical histroy, i came to know that you are 35 weeks pregnant. It is normal to have increased level of granulocytes like myelocytes and its precursor pro myelocytes to get elevated as this are physiological to pregnancy and it gradually falls down after delivery. Nothing to worry,if your levels are within milder range. I would precisely help you,if you have given me the exact value of the report. Take care.
