John Doe, a 28-year-old male engineer, presented to the Hematology Clinic with a history of recurrent episodes of uncontrolled bleeding. He reported multiple instances of prolonged bleeding following minor injuries, dental extractions, and spontaneous nosebleeds since childhood. His family history was significant for a maternal uncle who had similar bleeding tendencies. John sought medical attention due to increasing concerns about the frequency and severity of his bleeding episodes. John's family history revealed a strong predisposition to bleeding disorders. His maternal uncle had a confirmed diagnosis of hemophilia B, and there were anecdotal reports of other male relatives experiencing excessive bleeding after minor injuries. How would you treat John's condition?
