How do Genetic Syndromes Affect Reproductive Health?
Several genetic syndromes have a direct impact on reproductive health. For instance, Turner Syndrome, a condition where a female is partly or completely missing an X chromosome, can lead to ovarian insufficiency and infertility. Similarly, Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome affects sexual development, leading to individuals with XY chromosomes (typically male) developing female characteristics due to the body's inability to respond to androgens.
