Hemophilia is a genetic disorder primarily inherited through genes carried on the X chromosome, meaning it is often passed from mother to child. To reduce the risk of hemophilia, parents can undergo genetic counseling, especially if there is a family history of the condition. Prenatal testing can also be done to assess the risk of passing on the disorder. However, since hemophilia is a hereditary condition, there is no guaranteed way to prevent it entirely.

Can hemophilia be detected in the child before birth?
yes hemophilia can be detected before birth

All Girls will be carriers of Hemophilia and all Males will be unaffected (they won't have Hemophilia).
Can you get a test if you are pregnant to see if your child has hemophilia?
It is possible to diagnose Hemophilia in the fetus during pregnancy by demonstrating the abnormal gene.
What kinds of people have more of a chance of getting hemophilia?
Hemophilia is a genetic disease, therefore people who have ancestors who were hemophiliacs have a greater chance of getting it.
Are people with Hemophilia prevented of getting Malaria?
No, hemophilia does not confer an advantage against malaria. People with sickle-cell anemia do have an immunity, of sorts.
A woman with hemophilia and a man without hemophilia are expecting a baby boy what are the chances that their son will also have hemophilia?
If the female has what is classically defined as female hemophilia (carries the mutation on both of her X chromosomes), then all sons she would have would also have hemophilia. All of the woman's daughters would also inherit the gene, however since they would also be getting a normal X chromosome from their father, they would not, themselves, have hemophilia under the classical definition. Today, it is understood that even carrying the trait on a single X chromosome can reduce a female's factor levels and give cause for doctors to diagnose her with hemophilia. Thus if you are simply looking at genetics (which you probably are) then the answer is all of her sons would have it and all of her daughters would be carriers. Therefore, since there is a 50-50 chance the first child bore would be a male, and a 50-50 chance it would be a female, the chance that their first child born would have hemophilia is 50%.
What is the effect on the unborn child with hemophilia?
Hemophilia is a genetic disorder that affects blood clotting, primarily passed down through X-linked inheritance. An unborn child may be at risk of inheriting hemophilia if the mother is a carrier or if the father has the condition. If the child is affected, they may face challenges related to bleeding and bruising due to insufficient clotting factors. Early diagnosis and management are crucial for ensuring the health and well-being of the child.
If both parents are carriers what will the child be?
When a recessive trait is inherited from both parents, it will be expressed. If the trait is hemophilia, the child will be a hemophiliac.
If you have hemophilia and scrape your knee why does it keep bleeding?
When you have hemophilia, the proteins that clot your blood are not being created and therefore, a scab cannot be created to effeciently stop the bleeding.
What does it mean when a child 's blood does not clot right?
It could mean that the child has Hemophilia, a rare disorder where blood does not clot fast and can bleed for serveral hours after a cut or injury where blood is lost (this is including internal injuries.) If you were bleeding internally you most likely could not determine it, and where some people's may be able to heal, a person with Hemophilia could not. If you suspect a child you know has Hemophilia, consult a doctor IMMEADIATLY.
