Factor X deficiency is an uncommon blood disorder that makes it hard for blood to clot properly. It happens when the body doesn’t make enough Factor X, which is a protein that helps blood clot, or when the Factor X doesn’t work right. People with this condition may bleed more easily than normal, from just a little bit to a lot.
Factor X is important because it starts the process that makes blood form clots. Without it, the body has trouble stopping bleeding.
This condition is very rare. Only about 1 in every 500,000 to 1 million people have it worldwide. That means in a big city of 1 million people, there might be only one or two people with this problem.
It’s passed down in families, but only if both parents carry the gene for it. People can start having bleeding problems at any age.
