Best Answer

The body compensates by entering Hypovolemic shock. Hormones get released that will constrict your peripheral blood vessels to keep your blood in your core. Your heart rate will increase and your respiratory rate may increase as well.

If left untreated your body will fatigue and your breathing will diminish as will your heart rate.

If it is too severe to clot, severe bleeding will send the body into shock after a certain amount is lost. If the body cannot control the bleeding by clotting and/or the blood is not replaced, it is almost always fatal if it is serious enough.
