Hematal is an adjective used to describe something related to blood. The word is not widely used in everyday language, but there are several synonyms that can be used in its place. Examples include hematopoietic, which refers to the formation of blood cells; sanguinary, which describes something related to bloodshed or violence; hematic, which simply means related to blood; and hematogenic, which relates to the production of blood in the body. Other synonyms include blood-red, sanguine, and bloody, although these are more commonly associated with describing the color or appearance of blood rather than its connection to the body.
