I, as a younger girl (5 to 10) I got nosebleeds quite frequently, like 3 days a week & @ the most inconvenient times... But for no reason... I had to have my nose cauterized at least 3 times before they stopped... since then, I have had a son, who has went through the same thing. We have No explanation for it but they keep telling us it's hereditary? My dad also had frequent nosebleeds & My neice has also had the very same thing happen w/ her... again... they say it's hereditary... And we've all went to different doctors, they all say hereditary which makes no sense to me but cauterizing it, fixed it... with all of us...

When I get overheated I'm either getting a nosebleed or I'm passing out. I just had one about a week ago while I was sleeping. Woke up with dried blood everywhere.
I have never experienced nosebleeds personally. But, it is usually not because of an underlying disease. It occurs because of damaged blood vessels, nasal dryness, or nose-picking. It can also occur because of some injury. If it bleeds severely, make sure to consult your health professional.
I get them randomly. Sometimes twice in one day then I'll go a month or two before I get another one.
I just put pressure on the bleeding nostril with a finger for a couple of minutes until the blood coagulates.

I've only gotten two in my life and both were because a younger cousin head butted me.
I have never actually had a nosebleed but it's a goal of mine to get one somehow
I'm on blood thinners due to heart conditions.
If i sneeze really hard, I get nose bleeds and with being on thinners, they last an hour or soI don't get that very often either. Maybe once a year or a couple of times a year.
Only if I pounded my nose on something which only has happened to me once
Never had my nose just bleed.
it’s always needed impact to make it bleedI haven’t in some years. My daughter got them a bunch during the summer though 😩
Too often. My doctor says I wouldn't get so many. If I'd just keep my finger out of there.
Once or twice a year, typically in winter, when the air is dry.
I used to get them a lot when I was a kid. It has been years since I have had one.
I can't remember the last time i had one, and I KNOW! I won't be looking forward to ever getting one.
Not often my dr. recommended I use Aquegel it doesn't feel nice but it helps.
I used to get it regularly when I was in kindergarten but not an issue anymore. Don't know what caused it or what changed
Less than once a year, and never more than a trickle.
I don't get them luckily, I had the last one when I was a kid
Outside of a few fights? never
For me it depends on the season. It usually happens when the air is really dry.
Thankfully very rarely.
rarely close to never
Only occasionally when I pick the wrong way, or possibly blow too hard.
But never for any other reason
