autoimmune thrombocytopenia

Greetings, I am a girl who is 21 years old and I want to know something about autoimmune thrombocytopenia. This is pretty important for me, therefore I ask of you swift answer. Thank you in advance for everything you say and sorry to waste your valuable time. Everything you write will do.

I can tell you that this condition isn't rare. Most of the patients are women. As for the therapy, corticosteroids and splenectomy are most commonly used. Vitamin C, intravenous gamma globulin and pectin might also help. Doctors should be sure that patients don't have lymphoproliferative disorder. This is very important, especially for older patients.
