Hemophilia B treatment in Ciudad de México

Hemophilia B is an inherited clotting disorder in which the body lacks a factor needed for the blood to clot properly, so that bleeding can take longer to stop.

Common symptoms: Bruises tend to appear easily, prolonged bleeding after wounds or procedures and, in some cases, bleeding within joints or muscles.

Common causes: It is passed on genetically and affects mainly males, although women can be carriers.

Which specialist treats it? The hematologist is the professional who studies and follows up clotting disorders such as hemophilia B. With unusual or repeated bleeding, the advisable course is to have this specialist evaluate it to understand the cause.
