A member asked:
What blood tests would i need to determine if my blood coagulation is normal? or if it is thick from hereditary issues or medical issues.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many tests: I would start with PTT, PT/INR and plattelets. For the hereditary clotting disorders there are many tests and unless you have had a clot they are probably not necessary. If people in your family have had blood clots then find out what disorder they have and you can be tested for that. Testing for all possible clotting disorders is extremely expensive.
