If a blood test showed that you have a 94 platelet count, indicating an impairment of some kind in your ability to produce platelets, and with that already being very low, if you are prone to heavy clotting during menstruation, would it be in your best interest, to avoid menstruating at all? I understand that by administering a different dose of birth control medication, you can stop a woman from menstruating. Would that prevent her from using what minimal platelets she has left for an unnecessary reason, until her platelet count issue could be resolved.
