Von Willebrand Disease is a genetic bleeding disorder that affects the blood's ability to clot. It occurs when there is a deficiency or dysfunction of a protein called von Willebrand factor, which helps platelets stick to blood vessel walls and each other. People with this condition may experience frequent nosebleeds, easy bruising, and prolonged bleeding after injuries or surgeries. There are three main types of Von Willebrand Disease, each varying in severity. Type 1 is mild, while Type 2 has moderate symptoms, and Type 3 is the most severe form. Treatment often involves medications that increase the levels of von Willebrand factor in the blood, helping to manage symptoms effectively.
