A protein found in the blood that is involved in the process of blood clotting.
Von Willebrand disease (vWD) is named after Finnish physician Erik von Willebrand, who first described the disorder in 1926. He identified a specific bleeding condition in patients, particularly in women, that was linked to a deficiency or dysfunction of von Willebrand factor, a key protein in blood clotting. His work laid the foundation for understanding the genetic and clinical aspects of this bleeding disorder.
Erik Adolf von Willebrand died in 1949.
Erik Adolf von Willebrand was born in 1870.
Wilhelm Augustin von Steuben and Elizabeth von Jagvodin were Friedrich von Steuben's parents.
No, Kat Von D is not single.
Von Willebrand factor (vWF) is a blood glycoprotein involved in hemostasis.
von Willebrand disease results from inadequate von Willebrand factor. This problem is a blood clotting disorder.
The Finnish physician Erik von Willebrand was the first to describe von Willebrand disease (VWD).

The von Willebrand disease creates the tendency to bleed and bruise easily. It is an inherited clotting disorder that is usually less severe but more common. Those affected lack a plasma protein. Von Willebrand factor enables platelets to adhere to damaged blood vessel walls.

the body does not produce enough of a protein called von Willebrand factor(vWF) or produces abnormal vWF
Unfortunately you will not be able to grow out of von Willebrand's.
Von Willebrand's syndrome is a deficiency in the blood coagulation cascade. Specifically coag. factor 8. Coag factor 8 comes in 2 parts, von willebrand protein and another smaller glycoprotein. Heavy drinking may manifest some similar symptoms, but it's doubtful that it can be attributed to hemophilia related disease.

Von Willebrand disease may be hard to diagnose. Low Von Willebrand factor levels and bleeding do not always mean you have Von Willebrand disease. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000544.htm
