Hemophilia is an x-linked bleeding disorder that slows the blood clotting process. The major types of this disorder are Hemophilia A and Hemophilia B. Mutations in the F8 gene trigger type A Hemophilia, and the mutations on the F9 gene causes type B Hemophilia. Individuals with this condition often experience prolonged bleeding from an injury, surgery, or having a tooth pulled. Bleeding into the joints, muscles, brain, or internal organs can cause serious complications.
