Aplastic Anemia is a rare blood disorder where the bone marrow fails to produce enough blood cells. This can lead to a shortage of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, resulting in symptoms like fatigue, increased risk of infections, and easy bruising or bleeding. The exact cause is often unknown, but it can be triggered by factors such as certain medications, autoimmune diseases, or exposure to toxic substances.
Diagnosis typically involves blood tests and a bone marrow biopsy. Treatment options may include blood transfusions, medications to stimulate blood cell production, or bone marrow transplants. Early detection and management are crucial for improving outcomes in affected individuals.
