Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder that causes the blood to not clot normally. This can cause easy bleeding, bleeding longer than normal or bleeding more than normal.
Hypercoagulable conditions are disorders where the blood is more likely to cause blood clots in the blood vessels. Thrombophilia is a medical term we use to describe the blood's increased tendency to clot. There are two types of thrombophilia: inherited thrombophilia and acquired thrombophilia.
Von Willebrand disease (vWD) is the most common hereditary bleeding disorder. Children with von Willebrand disease take longer to stop bleeding because of problems with the von Willebrand Factor (vWF).
