The function of platelets is in clotting. Without them the blood would not clot. They are cell fragments and not cells. They live only 5-9 days. Too many platelets can cause clots that then can travel and cause blockages in vessels. Too few can cause uncontrolled bleeding.
When platelets become low in your body, it can lead to a condition called thrombocytopenia. This can cause increased risk of bleeding and bruising, as platelets are essential for blood clotting. Severe cases of thrombocytopenia may require medical attention to prevent serious bleeding complications.
