Klinefelter syndrome can often be managed through regular checkups, medications, and counseling. This page of the eMedTV library discusses these options along with other possible treatments for Klinefelter syndrome, with links to additional information.
Treatments for Turner Syndrome
Treatments for Turner syndrome may include surgery, counseling, and medication. This eMedTV article describes various treatments for Turner syndrome and explains the importance of regular screening.
Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome is characterized by complete or partial absence of one of the two X chromosomes. As this eMedTV page explains, it only affects females. This page further explores this syndrome and its causes, symptoms, and treatment options.
Turner Syndrome -- The Heart and Blood Vessels
For many people with Turner syndrome, the heart and blood vessels are affected. As this eMedTV article explains, this can lead to problems such as high blood pressure. This page covers Turner syndrome and problems with the heart and blood vessels.
Turner Syndrome Abilities
Turner syndrome can hinder a person's abilities in areas such as memory and motor coordination. This eMedTV segment covers Turner syndrome, abilities that may be hindered in some patients, and areas that are generally not affected.
Turner Syndrome and Diabetes
Certain illnesses are more likely to occur in people with Turner syndrome -- and diabetes is one of them. This eMedTV resource discusses the link between Turner syndrome and diabetes, including the odds of developing diabetes.
