World Hemophilia Day 2025: “Access for All – Women and Girls Bleed Too”

On April 17, 2025, the global bleeding disorders community will unite to raise awareness and advocate for improved care and support for women and girls with bleeding disorders. World Hemophilia Day is a pivotal moment to challenge inequities, break stigmas, and ensure comprehensive care for all individuals affected by these conditions.

The Challenge: Underdiagnosis and Underservice
Women and girls with bleeding disorders often face delayed diagnoses and limited access to treatment due to a lack of understanding about their unique needs. This year’s theme, “Access for All – Women and Girls Bleed Too,” highlights the urgent need to address these gaps and ensure equitable care for everyone in the bleeding disorders community.

The Impact: Strengthening the Community
By prioritizing the diagnosis and treatment of women and girls with bleeding disorders, we can improve their quality of life and strengthen the entire bleeding disorders community. As Cesar Garrido, WFH President, emphasizes, “Recognizing women and girls with bleeding disorders is a significant milestone for our community… Prioritizing their diagnosis and treatment is crucial, and doing so strengthens our entire bleeding disorders community.”
