haemophilia

Hemophilia is a genetic disorder where the blood lacks certain proteins called clotting factors, which are essential for stopping bleeding. When someone with hemophilia injures themselves or experiences bleeding, their blood doesn't clot properly, leading to prolonged bleeding and difficulty healing. This condition is usually inherited and mostly affects males. Treatment involves replacing the missing clotting factors through injections, helping the blood to clot normally. While it can cause serious bleeding episodes, proper medical care allows many individuals with hemophilia to lead active lives.
