Some things to note about hemophilia after checking how people are using it in fanfictions:
Well not as life threatening as it was made out to be for Nate, untreated it still can be. With his parents resources and money he would have likely been diagnosed as an infant when he didn't stop bleeding after his newborn blood panel.
We don't know when he was born, but most people use the actors birthdays with the Arrowverse and Nick Zano was born in 1978, so it is entirely possible that Nate Heywood had been exposed to HIV when he was young due to treatments for his hemophilia and definitely could have faced bullying and ridicule because of that. I'd say since he was probably diagnosed as a baby? Maybe he was when he had to get treatment after that scraped knee at 5 years old.
There were countless leaps in treatment for Hemophilia in the 90's, so Nate would have gained a lot more freedom and had to worry about being careful a lot less around the time he was in late High school/just starting college.
They don't specify if Nate has Hemophilia A or B but based on my points in the original post? We can likely assume that he has Hemophilia A, since his trip to Oliver's office didn't land him in the hospital because of spinal bleeds or leave him with a black and blue face.
In short, Hemophilia is not a death sentence any more even if it is dangerous when untreated. Those who have it can go on to lead normal lives the same as someone with something like diabetes can, given that they treat their condition seriously and take the necessary precautions.
