Genetic Disorders Description
|
|
Problems in the genes or chromosomes of the fetus are called genetic disorders. The disorders may be inherited (passes from parent to child) or they may occur without a family history.
Some genetic disorders are more likely if you have a certain ethnic background or if you have a family history of a disorder. Counseling can help predict your risk, and testing may find the disorder.
This pamphlet will explain:
- Types of genetic disorders
- Who is at risk
- Available tests
