Benefits
- Helps reduce blood viscosity (blood thickness)
- Supports healthy circulation
Therapeutic phlebotomy is a physician-directed procedure that involves removing a carefully measured amount of blood, similar to a standard blood donation. This treatment helps lower elevated red blood cell levels, reducing blood viscosity (thickness) to promote healthier circulation and improve overall cardiovascular function.
It is commonly recommended for individuals with polycythemia, elevated hematocrit levels, or those undergoing testosterone replacement therapy, which can increase red blood cell production. When blood becomes too thick, it places additional strain on the heart and may increase the risk of blood clots, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications. By restoring a healthier balance, therapeutic phlebotomy supports more efficient blood flow and helps protect long-term cardiovascular health.
Therapeutic phlebotomy is performed only when medically indicated and under the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional. Treatment recommendations are based on your medical history, laboratory findings, and individual health needs. Usual amount of blood withdrawn can be anywhere from 250 ML’s – 473ML’s (1 Pint) depending on specific individual needs. Results and treatment frequency vary by patient.
