Question:
Does ITP usually go in the family? Like if I had low platelets 3 times in my life so far, wil my little brother or some one in the family also hve ITP?

Answers:
-ITP is occur in childhood period from 1:4 years after exposed to many causes as viral infection which not treated will at this time
-there is no family or genetic factor responsible for ITP
-I know many kids have ITP and have healthy brothers
-the only risk "very very rare" if your brother have in his childhood period the same viral infection"90% of known causes of ITP after viral infection" and he not treated will like you "but this very very rare"
-to be sure if you search in your family tree "your parents grandfathers grandmothers" you may not found any OF them have ITP
Hello bogus account maker ---- this one is just 'tooooo' obvious not to acknowledge ---- please define ITP??? Then perhaps one may give a reasonable answer. . .
