The body stops this blood loss through a complex clotting process called hemostasis. During hemostasis, the injured blood vessel constricts to reduce blood flow, platelets adhere to the injury site and clump (aggregate) together to form a loose platelet plug, and the coagulation cascade is initiated.
Coagulation and clotting are the same phenomenon. Medical term is coagulation while the lay term is clotting. Clotting is an easy term and doctors also are not above using it. Clot formation is one of the most important protective mechanisms in the body.hey are the intrinsic and the extrinsic pathway.

Absence of factor VIII causes hemophilia A. Absence of factor IX causes hemophilia B (Christmas disease).
