I am only a student currently taking physiology. I am also a licensed phlebotomist and EMT and not a doctor so take that into account when reading my answer.

60% is outside the normal range and is high for both males and females. As far as I know there are many things that can cause high hematocrit levels. Hypoxia, dehydration, and polycythemia are the only ones I know off the top of my head. I'm sure there are many more.
