Extract

Inherited bleeding disorders pose a particular challenge for pregnancy and the puerperium, due to both the inheritance risk to the fetus and the bleeding risk to the mother. Women at risk require counselling to address the following questions

  1. 1 Will I bleed?

  2. 2 What treatment do I need?

  3. 3 Can I pass it on to my children?
