Treatment and life expectancy...
TREATMENT!!
LIFE EXPECTANCY
Replacement therapy is the main treatment for hemophilia. Concentrates of clotting factor 8 (for hemophilia A) or clotting factor 9 (for hemophilia B) are slowly dripped or injected into a vein. They help replace the clotting factor that's low.
The life expectancy of someone with haemophilia dependends on whether they receive proper treatment. Without adequate treatment, many people with haemophilia die before they reach adulthood.
