Title :

Polycythemia

Explanation:

  • Polycythemia is the only thing that would not cause an increase in erythropoietin.
  • Excess in erythropoietin is caused from the low level of oxygen level.
  • Polycythemia is caused due to the increase in concentration of red blood cells.
  • Erythropoietin is produced by kidneys when there is severe anemia.
  • When the body posses severe anemia, kidneys produce higher level of erythropoietin.
  • Erythropoietin also makes the bone marrow to produce more red blood cells.
  • Erythropoietin may also be caused by excess iron deficiency, vitamin B12, in other other words, folate deficiency, decreased lifespan of red blood cells (RBCs; hemolysis), or by excessive bleeding.
