Yes, there is nothing stopping a person with hemophilia from having children. There are several concerns a person with hemophilia should be aware of though when the time comes to have children.
The first, and most obvious would be the chance for blood loss and uncontrolled bleeding during the birthing process if the mother is the one with hemophilia. While this is something to be aware of, it is also something that can be easily prepared for and overcome.
In this situation, the chances of having sons and daughter who inherit the traits for hemophilia is very likely. If the mother had the genes for hemophilia on both X chromosomes, all of her children will inherit the trait (daughters may or may not be symptomatic while all sons will be). If the mother only had the trait on one of her two X chromosomes, then there is a 50% each child born would receive the trait.
Since the trait for hemophilia is located on the X chromosome, and males have only one of these X chromosomes, all daughters of a male with hemophilia will receive the genes for hemophilia from him while any sons he has will not receive the gene.

Hemophilia occurs more commonly in males than in females.The two most common types of hemophilia are hemophilia A (also known as classic hemophilia) and hemophilia B (also known as Christmas disease). People who have hemophilia A have low levels of a blood clotting factor called factor eight (FVIII). People who have hemophilia B have low levels of factor nine (FIX).The two types of hemophilia are caused by permanent gene changes (mutations) in different genes.
