Turner syndrome can be detected during pregnancy through ultrasound or specialized testing such as amniocentesis, which determines the fetal karyotype.
Turner syndrome is a genetic condition that affects only women and is caused by a partial or complete deletion of one of the X chromosomes.
Turner syndrome is also known as X-chromosome monosomy.
Females with Turner syndrome have delayed sexual development.
They are mostly sterile, have a small stature, and have skin webbing around the neck.
A person with Turner Syndrome may also have cardiac problems, hearing loss, vision loss, and other symptoms.
