Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder that slows down the blood clotting process. People who have hemophilia often have longer bleeding after an injury or surgery. People who have severe hemophilia have spontaneous bleeding into the joints and muscles. 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.

There are several different companies that grow the proteins in a lab specifically to be used in treatment of hemophilia as well as several other companies that simply fractionate the factor proteins out of whole blood for the same usage. Other medications for hemophilia may include anti-inflammatories to assist the person in reabsorbing blood and reducing swelling.
