    Background: Hemophilia A and B are rare congenital disorders linked to the X chromosome due to a lack or deficiency of clotting factor VIII (FVIII) or factor IX (FIX), respectively. The severity of the disease depends on decreased levels of factor VIII or factor IX, which are determined by the type of causative mutation in the gene coding factors (F8 and F9, respectively), and this can lead to spontaneous bleeding, as well as bleeding after injuries or surgery, given the importance of hemophilia. The old and recent studies aimed at identifying the disease and making society aware of it. Despite this, the Palestinian society lacks local awareness of this disease.

It is considered to be a major public health problem in developing countries specifically in women and young children. The university students usually take fast junk food, and the food value of their diets is not always balanced. To our knowledge, the prevalence of IDA among Palestinian university students is not well studied.
