Low Mean platelet volume ( blood test )

Has anyone heard about having a low MPV could be cause for IBS- D ?

  1. I haven't heard of it being the cause, but after doing a Google search, I found this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7756523/ that found links between the two. I hope other community members will share their experiences with you soon.
    All the best, Karina (team member)

    1. Thank you Karina.

      1. You’re very welcome. How have you been doing lately?

    2. Maybe the low mean platelet volume is caused by the IBS instead of the other way around? I haven't read the study yet but just throwing that out there.

      1. Another way of looking at it.
