How many people are affected by hemophilia?

I am a 29-year-old male and I have hemophilia. I have never run into anyone else with it. How many people are affected by hemophilia?

1 Answer

The prevalence of hemophilia in US males is around one in 10,000. It is a genetic disease, so really the prevalence depends on the population. Why not look online for a support group? It is often very useful to chat with others with similar issues. You can get advice and share experiences.
