Myelofibrosis
- How to prevent?
Many patients with myelofibrosis are recognized incidentally during routine blood test or blood counts testing for other disorders.
Currently there are also no proven preventive strategies for essential thrombocythemia.
However, adopting a healthy lifestyle may help to prevent disease. This includes:
- Eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables
- Quitting or not starting smoking
- Limiting alcohol consumption
- Regular exercise
