Bleeding Test

A bleeding test is a medical procedure used to assess how well your blood clots. It typically measures the time it takes for a small wound or cut to stop bleeding. This test helps doctors evaluate if you have any bleeding disorders or issues with platelets, which are essential for clotting. Results can indicate problems related to conditions like hemophilia or the effects of medications. If the clotting time is longer than normal, it may signal a need for further examination or treatment to manage bleeding risks.
