What is idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura?

The cause of idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura is not very clear, and generally infection factors, genetic factors, immune system disorders and other related diseases.1

, infection factors: when the human body is infected by viruses, such as EB virus, herpes virus, human immunodeficiency virus, etc., can make the body produce corresponding antibodies, such antibodies and platelet membrane cross-reaction, leading to platelet damage, so that platelets are cleared by macrophages, causing thrombocytopenia, causing idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura.

2, genetic factors: if someone in the family has idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura, the incidence of other family members will increase.

3, immune system disorders: if suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases, may lead to platelet destruction, which will induce idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura.
