CONT

Anemias with RBC [Red Blood Count] of normocytic size (MCV 80 to 95 fl) have numerous causes, from faulty production to excessive loss or destruction; hypoerythropoietin states also result in normocytic anemias. The early stages of most anemias are also normochromic/normocytic because of the presence of the original normal RBC population manufactured before the new pathologic lesion appeared.
