Aspirin is called a "blood thinner" but it does not "thin" the blood: it makes the clotting time of the blood longer but there is no actual "thinning" involved. Platelets are small particles in the blood that cause blood clots to form. Aspirin prevents the platelets from forming blood clots. Therefore, aspirin can increase bleeding by preventing blood from clotting though it also can be used therapeutically to prevent clots from causing heart attacks and strokes.
