hypercoagulability
Hypercoagulability is a condition where the blood has an increased tendency to form clots. Normally, blood clots help stop bleeding when you're injured, but in hypercoagulability, the blood clots too easily or excessively, which can block blood flow in vessels. This can lead to serious health issues like deep vein thrombosis or strokes. The condition can be caused by genetic factors, certain medical conditions, medications, or lifestyle factors. Managing hypercoagulability involves identifying the underlying cause and may include blood thinners or lifestyle changes to reduce the risk of harmful clots.
