Unexplained, sudden bruises. Wounds that take a long time to stop bleeding. For people living with haemophilia, bleeds - both externally and internally - are common because this condition affects the blood's ability to clot. We hear from Hariee Prabakaran, on what living with this rare inherited blood disorder is like as a child and adult, as well as from Dr Zulaiha Muda on how advances in treatment have changed the lives of people living with haemophilia. 

NCD Chronicles is a series about people living with NCDs, going beyond the diagnosis to explore their personal experiences, their challenges, as well as the impact of their health condition on their loved ones. These stories reveal the importance of understanding the unique struggles and needs of the individuals behind the disease, in our response to the NCD epidemic.
