What is Prophy Conference?
“Prophy” or prophylaxis is preventative treatment regimen. It is critical for people with a bleeding disorder to treat preventatively to avoid joint damage and debilitating joint disease.
Consistency in prophy treatment is difficult but is extremely important and necessary to be healthy and increase your quality of life.
