Turner Syndrome

Turner Syndrome is a genetic condition that affects females, caused by the complete or partial absence of one of the two X chromosomes. This can lead to various physical and developmental challenges, including short stature, delayed puberty, and heart or kidney issues. Individuals with Turner Syndrome may also have distinctive physical features, such as a broad neck or low-set ears. While they may face certain health challenges, many lead fulfilling lives with medical support and appropriate care. Early diagnosis and intervention are important to address potential complications and to support growth and development.
