Turner Syndrome
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Turner syndrome is a genetic condition that affects women and is caused by the total or partial absence of one of the X chromosomes. It influences physical development and may be accompanied by different features depending on each person.
Features that may be observed: short stature, pubertal development that does not progress as expected, and, in some cases, particularities in the heart, kidneys, or other systems.
How is it addressed? The geneticist is the professional who studies and confirms this condition, and usually coordinates with other specialists according to the needs of each case.
When to consult? In the presence of notably short stature or development that does not follow the usual pace, an evaluation with the geneticist helps to better understand the situation and guide appropriate follow-up.
