A member asked:

7 wks 3 days pregnant i got blood tests. protein s, activity is 39. protein c, factor v/viii, prothrombin, b2 glycoproteins, lupus anticoagulant, cardiolipin, antithrombin iii are normal. i have always bled easy and no history of clots. is this bad?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This sounds good overall but the tests you mention are usually done because of clot history rather than bleeding history. An older test called a “bleeding time” test can help diagnose certain bleeding disorders like Bon Willebrand’s disease which could definitely affect the amount of bleeding after delivery of an infant.
