The clotting process is encouraged by certain blood particles (platelets and plasma proteins). Hemophilia occurs when you have a deficiency in one of these clotting factors. Hemophilia is inherited.However, about 30 percent of people with hemophilia have no family history of the disorder. In these people hemophilia is caused by a genetic change (spontaneous mutation). Hemophilia A, the most common type, is caused by insufficient clotting factor VIII. 2  Hemophilia B, the second most common type, is caused by insufficient clotting factor IX. 3  Hemophilia C, in which signs and symptoms are often mild, is caused by insufficient clotting factor XI.
