Answers From Experts & Organizations (1) SUCCESS! A. MCH stands for mean corpuscular hemoglobin. It estimates the average amount of hemoglobin in each red blood cell, measured in picograms (a trillionth of a gram). Automated cell counters calculate the MCH, which is reported as part of a complete blood count (CBC) test. MCH may be low in iron-deficiency anemia, and may be high in anemia due to vitamin B12 or folate deficiency. Other forms of anemia can also cause MCH to be abnormal.
