Platelets are cells in your blood that help blood to clot. They are made in the bone marrow. Chemotherapy can cause your bone marrow to make less platelets and may make you prone to bruising or bleeding.

A count of 140,000 (or referred to as 140 for short) on treatment day is probably fine to proceed with chemotherapy. There are many factors to consider including type and dose of chemotherapy. Talk to your doctor about how your chemo regimen affects your platelet count.

There is no particular intervention that will raise your platelet count; i.e., no particular foods or vitamins.
