Yes: This is a genetic condition which leaves you with a potential bleeding problem. No cure but there are some pretty royal families with this problem.

Uncommon problem: Factor v deficiency is really rare, but vw disease is very common, but sometimes overdiagnosed. There are known cases of combined factor v and viii deficiency (i have had 1 patient with this). There is no treatment that would reverse this, but in case of bleeding or anticipated blood loss, we do offer treatment that works very well.
