Von Willebrand Disease
Von Willebrand disease is an inherited clotting disorder in which a blood protein that helps stop bleeding is missing or does not work well. Because of this, people who have it tend to bleed more easily than usual.
Which specialist treats it? The hematologist is the professional who studies diseases of the blood and clotting; the general practitioner can guide the first visit and refer for the necessary tests.
Signs that may be noticed:
- Frequent or prolonged nosebleeds
- Easy bruising
- Heavy bleeding after cuts, surgeries, or during menstruation
When to seek care? If bleeding is frequent, hard to stop, or there is a family history, a professional evaluation makes it possible to have a proper diagnosis and follow-up.
