Why Factor XI Deficiency Deserves Greater Awareness – Haemophilia Foundation Australia

Haemophilia Foundation Australia shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Did you know?

The top three bleeding disorders to affect women in Australia are:

  1. Von Willebrand disease (VWD)
  2. Haemophilia
  3. Factor XI (11) deficiency

Factor XI (11) deficiency is an inherited bleeding disorder.

It is caused when a person’s body doesn’t produce enough of a protein in the blood (factor XI) that helps blood clot, or the factor XI doesn’t work properly.

Unlike haemophilia A or B, there is no bleeding into joints and muscles.

Factor XI deficiency used to be known as haemophilia C.”
