Is the remission rate high in chronic aplastic anemia?

Patient's question:

I have been experiencing dizziness recently, and I can't eat properly either. My mental state isn't great either. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's a blood-related issue. Could you please tell me if the remission rate for chronic aplastic anemia is high?

Doctor's answer:

Aplastic anemia is caused by the suppression of bone marrow, which cannot function normally to produce blood cells. This disease clinically presents with progressive anemia and some skin manifestations, so it should be treated actively. However, missing the treatment window can be life-threatening. Currently, hormone therapy and bone marrow stem cell transplantation are used. Although this method is relatively expensive, it can provide a complete cure.
