A member asked:

How can liver dysfunction cause bleeding disorder?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Clotting proteins: The liver makes most of the proteins in blood, including those involved in blood clotting. When the liver is damaged, these may be deficient and cause a longer than normal time for blood to clot.
