Despite what you may hear, a blood clot is a very normal function of the body. When we hurt ourselves, blood clots stop us from bleeding out over even a minor paper cut. However, when a blood clot forms in a blood vessel, a series of health complications could arise. Here are the dangers of blood clots and tips toward prevention.<\/span><\/p>\n

Danger: Hormonal Complications<\/b><\/p>\n

Any hormonal changes such as pregnancy, certain types of birth control, or hormonal replacement therapy can trigger a blood clot. These can result in a miscarriage, high blood pressure, or maternal death.<\/span><\/p>\n

Prevention: Talk to Your Doctor<\/b><\/p>\n

If you have any condition with the possibility of a blood clot, it\u2019s important to keep in touch with your doctor. Knowing you have an increased risk allows you to ensure you take precautions, especially during pregnancy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Danger: <\/b>Pulmonary embolism<\/b><\/p>\n

A pulmonary embolism is a blood clot in the lungs. This can result in severe damage to the lungs, heart, or other organs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Prevention: Keep Moving<\/b><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re taking a trip or plan on sitting for more than 4 hours, be sure to stand up and stretch out from time to time. Without proper circulation, there\u2019s a higher chance of blood pooling into one area. An exercise routine can also help keep your arteries in great shape, so get up and get moving!<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to prevent a blood clot, it\u2019s best to engage in regular movement and talk to your doctor about any family history of blood clots and prevention.
