Living with Klinefelter Syndrome (47,XXY) Trisomy X (47,XXX) and 47,XYY

This comprehensive guide to X and Y chromosome aneuploidy is written in lay language, providing an authoritative volume that explains X and Y chromosome variations in clear, accurate terms. These surprisingly common genetic conditions, affecting 1 in 500 individuals, include Klinefelter syndrome, Trisomy X and 47,XYY. The book provides clear explanations of the genetics involved, diagnosis and disclosure issues, development from infancy through early adulthood, potential health and fertility concerns, and educational and psychosocial considerations. The text is illustrated with quotations from those who live with the disorders, and provides not only descriptions of potential concerns, but also strategies for successfully addressing the challenges that may develop. The material on which the book is based includes a survey of over 800 adults and families, as well as the most recent professional articles available.
