How Common is It? - Canadian Hemochromatosis Society
... Hereditary hemochromatosis is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that a person needs to inherit two defective copies of the gene, one from each parent, in order to be affected. Men and women are affected equally. People with just one copy of the mutated gene and one normal copy are referred to ...
