Is it true that fish oil supplements cause increased bruising in healthy adults?
Partly. The retrieved items do not directly test whether fish oil supplements cause increased bruising in healthy adults. One case report links fish oil plus erenumab to bruising in a single migraine patient, while a retrospective analysis found no significant increase in bleeding risk among patients on fish oil with antiplatelet drugs.
