What Causes Hyper Coagulation And Is It A Hereditary Disease?

Hi, I m dating someone that suffers from Hypercoagulation ( thickened of the blood). I would like to know if this illness is contagious or not by means of intercourse or kissing. Also, if it is hereditary in case we have kids in the future. Thank you.

Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. No it is not contiguous.
2. It does not spread with kiss.
3. If its hereditary, it can occur in next generation. However, the risk depends on the pattern of inheritance.
4. With anticoagulants, he can lead a normal life.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again
