🩸Is haemophilia (fe)male?

Many women—especially carriers—face bleeding risks & low factor levels, yet remain underdiagnosed. Haemophilia doesn’t discriminate & neither should care. Stay tuned for new resources today!

4 critical facts everyone with a bleeding disorder should know for the ER.

What other medical situations should we create simple guides for next? Reply with your ideas.

Infographic titled 'Must Know Facts For Patients with a Bleeding Disorder in the Emergency Room' with four numbered steps in blue boxes: 1) Tell staff you have a bleeding disorder immediately at check in, 2) Factor replacement should be given as soon as possible for most bleeding, 3) Avoid NSAIDs and aspirin (they make bleeding worse), 4) If you have factor with you, tell staff right away. The HealthEd for Everyone logo appears at the bottom.
