Blood work
Hello -
I was hoping someone could give a brief answer and tell me if these are 'good' figures? Last week I went to have my blood work done and I picked up the results. My Hemoglobin was 16.4 and my Hematocrit is 47.5. Are these consider good, bad? My doctor didn't feel the need to call me about them so I assume its not bad! |

Re: Blood work
Google is your friend. Take a look around. This was the first hit on Google when I looked up normal hemoglobin ranges... http://www.bloodbook.com/ranges.html

Re: Blood work
Those are well within the normal ranges. I know that hematocrit can vary greatly from individual to individual, even day to day in the same person - due to hydration, diet and rest. "Normal" ranges for men are 42-54.
If you were below these numbers, you would likely have been contacted with the news that you were anemic! You sound plenty healthy. With training that number could even increase!  |
