Hemophilia A
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Hemophilia A is an inherited clotting disorder in which the body does not produce enough of a factor needed for the blood to clot properly, which favors bleeding that lasts longer than usual.
Common symptoms: bleeding that takes a long time to stop, bruises that appear easily, and, in more marked cases, hemorrhages within the joints or muscles.
Origin: it is passed on through the genes and affects predominantly males, though women can be carriers.
Which specialist treats it? The hematologist is the physician specialized in disorders of the blood and clotting, such as hemophilia A. If there is a family history or unusual bleeding, the recommended course is to seek guidance from this professional.
