low molecular weight heparin and long term bleeding

Posted , 1 user is following.

i had two doses of LMWH around a month apart due to raised d dimer on two occasions. since then i have noticed that my blood is a lot thinner and it takes a lot longer for wounds to stop bleeding.

im not sure if this is a common side effect of the medication as LMWH doesnt stay long in the body?

thanks
