well i haven't been on for awhile sorry about that well if you've look at one of the comment that is on my first blog Mrs. June her daughter has Tuner's so shes helped me out THANKS MRS JUNE!
well I've been researching for the past week but haven't been able to post anything but here is what I've learned:
-Turner's Syndrome basically deals only with females
-they are either missing or have abnormal 46 X chromosome
-1 out of every 2500 females are affected by Turner's Syndrome
-there are some physical abnormalities that can be seen such as a low hair line, low set ears, webbed necks, and being short in stature and NO two females will so the symptoms
-Turners doesn't allow girl to reproduce do to the fact that they are missing a X chromosome
- many health concerns can be present such as congenital heart disease, hypothyroidism, diabetes, vision and hearing problems, and many autoimmune diseases
-at this time there is no known cure for Turners
-all that is know is that during conception the second X sex chromosome is not transferred to the fetus
-about 98% of all fetuses that have Turners result in miscarriage (1 out of 2500 with survive birth)
-Turner's Syndrome accounts for 10% of all of the abortions in the US alone
-Turner's Syndrome is named after an endocrinologist named Henry Hubert Turner
-the first documented case was in 1959 in England
-there is no cure for Turners but there are treatment options such as growth hormone, Estrogen replacement therapy
