Can ITP cause complications in marital life?
Patient: Hello I want to marry a girl who has suffered from ITP previously .She has done her treatment but as doctors say that there is no reason why ITP happens so there is no surety that this will not happen in future. I want to know is there any kind of complications in our marriage life because of  her ITP? Doctor: Hello and welcome to HCM,ITP stands for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.In majority of cases, ITP is acquired and the cause is not known.Viral infection is the most probable cause of ITP.ITP can recur and it causes fall in platelet count. however, fall in platelet count will not affect your married life.Thanks and take careDr Shailja P Wahal
