There are 13 main blood clotting proteins, called clotting factors, that work together to help blood form a clot and stop bleeding. These proteins activate one another in a chain reaction known as the Coagulation cascade, which ultimately forms a stable clot to seal an injured blood vessel. 🩸People with hemophilia are missing one of the 13 proteins.
