What causes blood clotting?
Asked by: 38 Years Old, 94 Kg, 186cm Male
There are many causes of blood clots. These may include genetic factors, certain diseases, lifestyle factors, and the use of certain medications. The main causes of blood clots are:
Genetic Factors: Some people may inherit this condition if they have a family history of blood clotting disorders.
Injuries: After an injury, the body produces clots to stop blood loss.
Surgery: The risk of blood clots may increase after surgical interventions.
Inactivity: Being inactive for long periods of time, especially on long flights or on bed rest, can increase the risk of blood clots.
Smoking: Smoking can increase the risk of blood clots.
Hormones: Birth control pills or Hormonal Replacement Therapy (HRT) can also increase the risk of blood clots.
Other Health Problems: Health problems such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and obesity can also increase the risk of blood clots.
