What is hemophilia?

Hemophilia is a serious condition in which the body is unable to ensure proper blood clotting, which can lead to life-threatening bleeding problems. Plasma donation can provide hope in such cases, as medicines made from plasma can help treat patients with hemophilia. This means that every plasma donation truly matters. In fact, approximately 1,200 plasma donations are required to provide a hemophilia patient with a one-year supply of medication.
