Chronic neutropenia refers to a sustained decrease in neutrophils, a type of white blood cell essential to the immune system’s ability to fight infection. Neutropenia is considered chronic when low neutrophil levels persist for more than three months. While some individuals experience only mild symptoms, others may be more vulnerable to recurrent infections.
Patients are the experts in their condition and advocacy groups provide a platform for patient voices. Working directly with these communities is the key to pushing research forward in an inclusive way.
