Question about hemophilia?

Biology:
what kind of genetic disorder is it? is in insertion, deletion, extra chromosome?

it I am a carrier of this disease (im a female) and my husband isnt then what is the chance of our child will get it?

also where can we go to get support?

also what are some finantial costs of having this disease?

inherited disorder in which one of the proteins needed to form blood clots is missing or reduced. In about 30% of cases, there is no family history of the disorder and the condition is the result of a spontaneous gene mutation.

mutations found in this disorder are heterogeneous....that means many types of mutations...intron 22 inversion

if u are a fem u carry gene .....in x chromosome....

so if u have a daughter( 2x causes a female child )

one x comes from u and 1 x comes from ur hus...

so x from husband provides protection (being normal and producing enough factor8 ) from active disease

(( but when they have children they can be affected...called a carrier state....))

half of your daughters will carry hemophila gene to next generation but will not have disease...

.half will be normal.....even their daughters will not be affected.....

if u have a male child (male child is a xy) he will be affected..
as all x comes from you.....hus contributes y part of genes to male child

given below is a site to get support.....


financial burdens in form of factor 8 infusions and frequent blood transfusions may cost much......ask your doc

these are genetics of classical hemophilia if u have hemophilia b or factor9 deficiency it will be different.....

sorry about male child if u are a carrier only half ur x is affected

u have a normal x and a mutated x......so half of ur male children will be normal getting ur normal x

and half will be affected......getting ur abnormal x chromosome.... Report It

There is a 50-50 chance of your male children getting it but not your female children.
