Is Easy Bruising Due To A Blood Disorder?

I have iron deficient anemia, and have done IV treatments to elevate my iron levels. More recently, I am noticing that I am bruising quite easily, and sometimes without knowing how I got the bruise. I have been doing a lot of reading and research, and wondered if this bruising easily is something i should look into as possibly having another blood/clotting disorder.

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. If you get easily bruised then you may have some other disorder. Its not due to your iron deficiency or its treatment. You should go for platelet count amd and coagulation profile once. It will give idea regarding your disorder. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Consult your physician go for investigation and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
