Hemo A

Hemophilia A is a genetic bleeding disorder caused by a missing or defective protein called clotting factor VIII, which is essential for blood to clot properly. Without enough factor VIII, the blood doesn't clot effectively, leading to frequent or prolonged bleeding episodes, especially after injuries or surgeries. It primarily affects males and is inherited from the mother. Treatment usually involves regular infusions of factor VIII to prevent or control bleeding, allowing individuals to lead active lives with proper medical care.
