I am a retired advanced theraputic endoscopist-gastroentgerologist. Excellant presentation. A very clear presentation for medical students and others.

[@osmosis]

Thank you for the feedback 🙏🏼 ❤️ 😊

I like the refresher. My kid is 14 so we have been managing this for a while now. She has started the hormonal growth therapy. Almost daily shots so between that and the cost ( thank goodness for the financial assistance) we have our hands full. It's still pretty early in development but Doc said might have to start the estrogen treatment if she wants to hv a shot at kids and more adult development. She did have open heart surgery as a baby,she did great!. And another one if in the near horizon as she grows into an "adult sized heart" Doc says. Not looking forward to that one. The impact definitely feels different.

As a woman who is trying to find true research or info and understandable info on genetics (which is a puzzle In itself even for the geneticists) thank you for all geneticists with what you do! Anyways I am a woman with possible Turners so this really helped me with good info but true info!

My daughter has TS and is now 39, when diagnosed she was 11 & had growth hormome(synthetic)& thankfully it was the synthetic hormone, I personally still don't understand, thank you for this video , Keep Lifted

[@osmosis]

We hope this video helped, Karen 🙏🏼

[@meredithgreenslade1965]

My daughter is 38 and was diagnosed after her birth. She had the synthetic hormone injections and is 5' 2. She presents okay with people not realising. However she also has high functioning autism. She drives and works part time. Her kidneys and heart are fine. She does have hypothyroidism but so do I. She is pre diabetic. Life with her is not a bed of roses at times, and she has no desire to live on her own. Still she stays reasonably healthy and that's good

[@ldee4127]

Very helpful information. How much certainty should be given to an NIPT screen showing a very high percentage of Turners? I know only way is an amnio test, but if an NIPT shows it, is it fairly accurate most of the time?

[@waelfadlallah8939]

The pun included during narration of this video and the majority of your videos is joyful 😄

i am actually confused about one thing - you said that during mosaicism these cells that have 47 chromosomes doesn’t survive but i remember that in the other video about dawn syndrome man said that its 45 chromosomal cells that doesn’t survive. guess i missed something 😆 but thank you anyway it was really helpful❤️

[@tatianajadid262]

I am 17 years old .. I had my period when I was almost 12 years old and completely regular , but I am short my height is 153 cm , and my weight is 37 kg . My intelligence is very normal , and I look much younger than my age also my body showed no signs of puberty .. I do not have the rest of the symptoms. Can anyone help me to know if I have Turner syndrome ?

[@Peculiarimmigrant36]

Hello, you need to go to your DR and ask for a “katyotype” test. This is super simple and fairly painless. All they do is take some blood and look at the cells. I wish you the best!

[@tatianajadid262]

@@Peculiarimmigrant36 Thank you very much 💗

[@laneyl2784]

As someone with Turners, I would say maybe. Usually if you have turners you don’t get periods without hormone replacement, but sometimes they start normally then stop in early adulthood. I would definitely get checked out, regardless if it was Turners or not. Maybe it’s something else entirely or nothing at all

[@asadnoor344]

Awesome 😎 , it's most helpful for remember entire life

Glad to hear that, Asad! 💖

A man with 45 chromosomes? Where is information on this man. A carrier for Down Syndrome and also Infantile Neuroaxonal Dystrophy. Please help with information

[@judyannmasong2494]

So what is the product that can literally trigger a turber syndrome

[@OranG_01]

It’s from birth, you are born as a turner female So the best way to check if u have turner is to see your karyotype

[@dosenbrot9641]

Can men have that

[@OranG_01]

No
