Doctors For Von Willebrand Disease In Karachi

Von Willebrand disease meaning in Urdu is "خون کے جمنے کا موروثی مرض". It is a lifelong bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot properly. People with this condition have low levels of a clotting protein called von Willebrand factor, or the protein does not work as it should. This makes it harder for the body to stop bleeding after an injury or surgery.

Von Willebrand disease is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. It affects both men and women in equal numbers, however women usually notice symptoms more because of heavy menstrual bleeding. Most cases are mild and many people do not know they have it until they have a surgery or major injury. There is no cure, however treatment and self-care can prevent and control bleeding.
