Can aplastic anemia be treated?

Patient's question:

Recently, I often experienced episodes of black spots in my eyes and dizziness, especially when standing up suddenly. The doctor said this is due to aplastic anemia. I need to pay attention to my diet and exercise more. What are the causes of aplastic anemia?

Doctor's answer:

Aplastic anemia is primarily an autosomal recessive hereditary disease with a familial tendency. The recurrent occurrence of aplastic anemia may be related to the following factors: drugs, which are the most common cause of sepsis; chemical toxins, radiation, viral infections, and autoimmune conditions. With active treatment, the condition of most patients can show significant improvement, while a very small number of patients may achieve spontaneous remission.
