There is no cookie cutter answer to how hemophilia effects peoples' lives.
There are several different things that directly impact the degree and type of effect the disorder has. The severity of the disorder, the age of the individual, the support network the individual has, the access to good doctors and treatment, and even their ability to manage stress can play a large roll in the impact. Below we'll look at a few of the more common situations.
Probably the single most noticeable impact the individual or their family will see that the common person does not see is the financial impact. The replacement therapies for treating hemophilia are very expensive (averaging over $250,000 US per year and in some cases over $1,000,000). Maintaining health insurance coverage is a must.
Older hemophiliacs tend to experience more joint damage and what is termed hemoarthritic joints. Frequent bleeding into the joints causes the body to release enzymes into those joints in order to break down and reabsorb the blood. Unfortunately, these enzymes can also break down the cartilage, causing hemoarthritis.
Older hemophiliacs may also be dealing with co-morbidities such as HIV and Hepatitis C due to contaminated blood products in the 1980s.
With the newer and safer medications that are available today most individuals with hemophilia will never experience the effects listed above, other than the financial burden. Currently;
On the upside;
mostly males do. it is x-linked recessive trait, so it is passed from affected males through their daughters to their grandsons. but since females can be carriers and show symptoms to some degree some females are hemophiliacs but its rare. a father cant pass it directly to his son.
Yes, Cats, Dogs, and Mice can also have Hemophilia.
Yes. In fact hemphilia only affect men. The condition is tied to the male chromosome.
50%
Typically it does not affect the respiratory system at all. The only time it would if if the person suffers an injury that causes bleeding into the lungs. At that point, I think Hemophilia would be the least of their concerns
You can get it from your mom if she has the trait but that only apply to men, if your a girl you have to inherited it from your mother and father.
Haemophilia suffer mainly men, since they hemophilia genes are permanently activated.
It is more common in men.
All Girls will be carriers of Hemophilia and all Males will be unaffected (they won't have Hemophilia).
When people would dispute who should claim the throne when the heirs died from hemophilia.
Hemophilia is a non-communicable disease and can only be gotten through genetics
cus i say so ahahahahah
Exceptions are always there e.g hemophilia and many bleeding disorders don't affect females.
because there is only the defects in function of platelets in hemophilia and not reduction in number of platelets!
