Hypercoagulable state: A hypercoagulable state is the medical term for a condition in which there is an abnormally increased tendency toward blood clotting (coagulation). There are numerous hypercoagulable states.
Understand the Term. Thick blood is known in the medical community as hypercoagulability. As its name indicates, this condition causes blood to clot much more easily than usual because it is thicker and stickier. Normally, a combination of proteins within blood prevent it from clotting in the vessels.
