BloodStream Top Bleeding Disorders Stories of 2025
On this episode of BloodStream, we look back at a year that reshaped the bleeding disorders community. Our Top Stories of 2025 segment explores the biggest shifts, from expanded treatment choices and growing complexity, to hard conversations about safety, trust, and the real-world limits of innovation. We examine gene therapy's reality-check moment, global progress through changes to the WHO Essential Medicines List, and why 2025 marked a turning point for women and girls with bleeding disorders.
Also featured, a powerful I'm Fine segment with Makenna Dietrich, who shares how "I'm fine" can hide anxiety and inaction, and why waiting has a cost. Her story is a reminder that speaking up and seeking support can bring clarity and change.
Together, these stories capture a year defined by honesty, courage, and a deeper understanding of what progress really asks of us.
