One of the causes of low platelets is Aplastic Anemia. which is a rare form of blood disorder where in the body's reduces producing new blood cells. This mainly happens if the blood stem cells get damaged and the body is unable to replace the damaged ones. The overall result will be low count in the red or white blood cells and platelets. Aplastic Anemia also causes fatigue, uncontrolled bleeding and high infection risks.
Hope this helps.
I was diagnosed with ITP idothrombocytopeniapurpura - it was a condition where my spleen was keeping my platelets. My platelet count was down to 3,500. After failed treatment with steroids, my spleen was removed and all is well. I am asymptomatic.
A low platelet count, or what is called thrombocytopenia, can have many causes. There are conditions such as ITP, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura to more benign causes. Further testing may be needed, depending on how low your platelet count is. Consult your physician.
There are many reasons for a low platelet count, or Thrombocytopenia. Perhaps your body has decided to not produce as much, or maybe they are trapped in an organ. There could also be an increased amount of damage to them, causing your body to not be able to keep up producing them.
Low platelet counts can be caused by impaired production due to bone marrow problems. It can also be caused by increased platelet destruction.

No, it does not mean these issues are related because having a low platelet count can mean many diseases, sicknesses, and illnesses. I advise you to seek a doctor to find out.
