Von Willebrand Disease Symptoms Quiz
For adults, a useful bleeding history includes nosebleeds, gum bleeding, easy bruising, and bleeding after cuts, dental work, or surgery. Heavy periods also matter if you have periods now or had them in the past. Consider when these patterns began, how often they happen, and whether relatives have similar bleeding problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this quiz, what it covers, and what your results mean.
These questions have not been clinically validated. Symptoms cannot diagnose a bleeding disorder. Uncontrolled bleeding, bloody vomit, black tarry stool, fainting or severe headache after head injury needs emergency care, including a recent unassessed episode.
Von Willebrand disease is a bleeding disorder that can cause easy bruising, nosebleeds, heavy periods, and prolonged bleeding after injuries or procedures. Symptoms alone cannot establish the diagnosis.
The timing of bleeding helps a clinician understand the pattern. Repeated nosebleeds, easy bruising, or prolonged bleeding reaching back many years are useful details to share, along with any recent changes.
A relative's diagnosis or longstanding bleeding problems can help a clinician assess possible von Willebrand disease. No known family history does not exclude it, and an unknown family history should not be treated as proof that it is absent.
Adults of any sex can have bleeding symptoms that need assessment. Menstrual bleeding history matters only if you have had periods; nosebleeds, bruising, and injury or procedure history remain relevant regardless.
Mention easy bruising, repeated nosebleeds, gum bleeding, heavy periods if applicable, and bleeding that lasts longer than expected after cuts, dental work, or surgery. Describe how often it happens, how long it lasts, and whether treatment was needed.
Diagnosis requires clinical assessment and targeted von Willebrand factor testing. Testing may need to be repeated. A symptom history helps guide evaluation, but neither symptoms nor routine blood counts can establish the diagnosis.
No. A normal CBC does not rule out von Willebrand disease because it does not provide the targeted von Willebrand factor testing needed for diagnosis. Ongoing bleeding concerns deserve discussion even when routine blood counts are normal.
A clinician may consider CBC & CMP for general blood-count and chemistry context, including hemoglobin and platelet count. It does not measure von Willebrand factor and cannot diagnose, confirm, or rule out von Willebrand disease or identify the cause of bleeding on its own. It is not a substitute for targeted testing.
Yes, heavy or prolonged periods can occur with von Willebrand disease, but they can have other causes. If you have had periods, describe their duration, how often you changed period products, and how bleeding affected daily activities.
Yes. Past prolonged bleeding after dental work or surgery is useful history, especially if additional treatment was needed. A remote event that was assessed and resolved is different from bleeding that will not stop now, which needs emergency care.
New bleeding deserves clinical assessment even without a lifelong pattern or known family history. It should not automatically be attributed to von Willebrand disease; a clinician needs to consider other possible causes.
Uncontrolled bleeding, bloody vomit, black stools, fainting, or a severe headache after a head injury requires emergency care. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department, including when these warning signs occurred recently and have not been assessed. Do not wait to order a panel or receive test results.
