There are more than 6000 identified rare diseases — and XLH is one of them.
Caused by mutations in the PHEX gene, XLH leads to chronic pain, bone deformities, and fatigue.
We’re raising awareness to ensure no one walks this path alone.

Imagine a country of 300 million people — all living with a rare disease.
XLH is part of this global community. It affects children and adults, often invisibly, but always profoundly.
This Rare Disease Day, we amplify the voices behind the numbers.

5% of the world’s population lives with a rare disease.
XLH is one of them — a rare genetic disorder that disrupts phosphate regulation, leading to rickets, dental issues, and mobility challenges.
Let’s raise awareness and push for earlier diagnosis and better care.

💥 300 million people worldwide live with a rare disease.
Among them are individuals with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) — a lifelong genetic condition that weakens bones, causes pain, and often goes undiagnosed.
This Rare Disease Day, we stand with every rare voice.

Most people have never heard of X‑linked hypophosphatemia (XLH)… but for those living with it, XLH shapes every single day.
XLH is a genetic, lifelong rare disease that affects the way the body handles phosphate — a mineral essential for strong bones, teeth, and muscles.
When phosphate levels stay low, the body can’t keep up. That means:
• bone pain and fractures
• bowed legs or skeletal differences
• dental abscesses
• fatigue that hits like a wall
• mobility challenges
• symptoms that continue into adulthood
XLH isn’t caused by diet. It isn’t something you “grow out of.”
It’s a hereditary condition caused by mutations in the PHEX gene, and it affects children and adults across Australia.
This Rare Disease Day (28 February 2026), we’re raising awareness so more people get diagnosed earlier, treated sooner, and supported better.
