Abstract
Inherited thrombophilia, particularly Factor V Leiden (G1691A) and Prothrombin (G20210A) mutations, is associated with venous thromboembolism and adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, awareness of these conditions among women in the region remains insufficiently characterized. This study assessed awareness, knowledge, and attitudes regarding inherited thrombotic disorders during pregnancy among Palestinian women.
