Amputees generally do not have less blood in their body than non-amputees; the volume of blood is primarily determined by body size and composition rather than limb presence. When a limb is amputated, the body may lose some blood during the procedure, but the overall blood volume typically remains within a normal range as the body adjusts. Additionally, the body can compensate for blood loss over time through various physiological mechanisms.
