Blood that is too thin can lead to excessive bleeding, making it difficult for your body to form clots and stop bleeding. Some common symptoms include:
- Easy bruising: Even minor bumps or pressure can cause large, easily noticeable bruises.
- Prolonged bleeding: Cuts and scrapes may take longer than usual to stop bleeding, and the bleeding may be heavier than expected.
- Nosebleeds: Frequent or prolonged nosebleeds may occur.
- Bleeding gums: Bleeding gums while brushing or flossing teeth can indicate a blood thinning issue.
- Heavy menstrual periods: Women may experience unusually heavy or prolonged menstrual periods.
- Blood in stool or urine: Blood in your feces or urine can be a sign of internal bleeding.
- Fatigue: You may feel unusually tired or weak due to blood loss.
If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to consult with your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
