New haemophilia booklet

The new HFA Haemophilia booklet is now available. The 2023 edition has been revised completely to take new haemophilia treatments into account. 

It is a great introductory resource about haemophilia that is very useful for new families and educating others, including extended family, schools, employers and health professionals who are new to haemophilia.

It covers:

• what causes haemophilia
• how common it is
• diagrams showing genetic inheritance and how bleeding occurs in haemophilia
• diagnosis
• treatment (including new treatments)
• carrying the gene alteration
• family planning and pregnancy
• tips on living well.

Thank you to all of the community members and health professional experts who contributed to and reviewed this booklet.
