Klinefelter syndrome

Klinefelter syndrome is a genetic disorder in which males with an extra X chromosome do not produce enough testosterone. Klinefelter syndrome was discovered in 1959. Symptoms for this disorder include infertility, less muscle mass than other boys, and impared communicating skills. Although there is no cure for Klinefelters syndrome, there are a few treatments for this disorder. For instance, educational services, phyical speech an occupational therapy, and medial treatments including testoserone replacement. Of course, getting this treatment is only possible if your alive and only forty percent of people with Klinefelters syndrome survive through the fetal period. Only one out of every 650 men in the world have this genetic disorder and as stated before, men are vulerable to this disorder. On a molecular level, cause of this disorder is the exsistance of an extra X chromosome. An important note for people that want to develop a treatment for Klinefelter syndrome is that they need to start treatment as early as possible. This disorder makes me feel terrible for any guy that has to go through this because they are more likely to be made fun of. I believe that this disorder should be recognized and treated well.
