Women, girls, and those with the potential to menstruate (WGPPM) who live with hemophilia, have more difficulty getting a diagnosis and accessing adequate care than their biological male counterparts. But why? What research is underway to support the needs of these individuals? This episode takes a wide-lens approach to exploring the socio-cultural barriers and gender-related challenges facing WGPPM in the global hemophilia community.   Contributors: Dawn Rotellini Andra James, MD, MPH Connie Miller, PhD Tyler Buckner, MD Maureen Baldwin, MD, MPH Kristin Paulyson Nunez, M.S., C.G.C Yannick Cole   Senior Advisor: Donna DiMichele, MD   Episode Advisors: Angela Weyand, MD Robert Sidonio, MD   Hosted by: Laurence Woollard   Links to learn more: Bercovitz RS. “A new hemophilia carrier nomenclature to define hemophilia in women and girls: Communication from the SSC of the ISTH”: Comment.
