For gastrointestinal bleeding without anemia, conservative treatment should be the first approach. Gastrointestinal bleeding without anemia suggests that the amount of bleeding is not substantial, the duration of bleeding is relatively short, or the bleeding rate is slow. Under a doctor's guidance, oral hemostatic medications such as hemostatic powders can be used for treatment. If conservative treatment proves ineffective, surgical intervention may be necessary when required, and hemostatic agents can also be utilized to control bleeding.
