Hemophilia has several common symptoms and these include bleeding of the joints and muscles, and prolonged bleeding. Bleeding is not typically faster or different to someone without hemophilia but it takes much longer to stop, typically, and this is the main symptom of the illness.

How do you use the word hemophilia in a sentence?
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder caused by either insufficient amounts of a clotting factor protein or a clotting factor protein that does not work correctly. The blood in individuals with hemophilia does not clot as fast as an individual with no bleeding disorder. Hemophilia is most often genetic and carried on the X chromosome. For this reason, men (having only one X chromosome rather than two like females) tend to show the symptoms of hemophilia and be diagnosed as hemophiliacs much more frequently.
Why are females less likely to get hemophilia?
Females are less likely to show the symptoms of hemophilia but in actuality are more likely to have the genetic mutation for hemophilia. The reason they are less likely to show the symptoms is the fact that hemophilia is the result of a mutation on the X chromosome. Since females have two X chromosomes they likely have a chromosome that is not mutated as well. With the mutation normally being a recessive trait, the normal X chromosome is usually expressed instead. Since males only have one X chromosome, if the mutation for hemophilia is present, it will be expressed. For the same reasons, the chances of a female having the mutation is greater (however still very small), simply because she has two X chromosomes.
