What do high or low MCV mean?
Educational guide only — not medical advice. Always review results with a qualified clinician.
MCV (mean cell volume) shows the average size of red blood cells. Low MCV often relates to iron deficiency or anaemia of chronic disease; high MCV may relate to B12 or folate deficiency—neither is a diagnosis on its own. Haemoglobin, ferritin, B12, and folate are interpreted together by your doctor.
