I went to give the blood yesterday and nurse told me that I can’t because my blood doesn’t clot. How it is possible? What I should do about it?
If you have a history of bleeding problems and if your blood does not clot normally, you should not donate since you may have excessive bleeding where the needle was placed. For the same reason, if you are taking any "blood thinner" such as coumadin or heparin for example, you should not donate.
Hi spaid,
any blood related problems definitely are something you have to see your doctor about. Only if you take into account that if your blood isn't clotting fast enough, any cut or injury might cause you potential hemorrhaging, the need to see a doctor becomes far too obvious. Even though most blood clotting problems are noticeable since childhood, there are several of them that are linked with various deficiencies.
Most common of them is iron deficiency which causes anemia, it's easily treated with iron supplement, but before this, you will need a simple blood test to confirm the blood iron deficiency. If there is some vitamin you're lacking, usually it's vitamin K or vitamin D, this can be treated with supplement, as well.

What could be the reason for blood not to clot?
This was not a helpful answer! Obviously this is news to the question and no knowledge of previous bleeding problems. Also, they just repeated what the nurse already said therefore they have provided no new advice or knowledge.
yeah exactly
and this is the case for many questions i have seen on the internet
but still even with having this problem,moderators blame the one who asks and defend their selves with no reason.just because they are selfish

you can copy paste the link to open it.
but i write some ways to make it easier.
1-using stypic pencil
2-rubing spider webs on the wound(may seem strange)
3-pouring cornstarch on the wound but no putting pressure on it just rise with water after cornstarch
4-using deodorants(they have chemicals to stop bleed)
and there are some medications to stop bleeding but they have side effects i think its better to discuss with a therapist before using them
for example Vitamin K and Cheetosan and Teranexamic acid
