A member asked:
Why do patients with liver disease commonly develop blood clotting disorders?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Function: One of the livers primary functions is to produce factors in the blood that promote blood clotting. When the liver starts to fail it can't make these factors which leads to people developing problems with clotting appropriately.
