Your MCH value is related to two other values, mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). A normal MCH value in humans is 27 to 33 picograms (pg)/cell. A low MCH value typically indicates the presence of anemia. Different types of anemia can cause low MCH levels.
It is used along with other red blood cell (RBC) indices, especially mean corpuscular volume (MCV), to help determine the causes of anemia. RDW is elevated in accordance with variation in red cell size (anisocytosis); that is, when elevated RDW is reported on complete blood count, marked anisocytosis (increased variation in red cell size) is
Description. Hypochromic microcytic anemia with iron overload is a condition that impairs the normal transport of iron in cells. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, which is the substance that red blood cells use to carry oxygen to cells and tissues throughout the body. In this condition, red blood cells cannot access iron in the .
