If my uncle and my cousin have autism, what is the risk of me having a child with autism?

Higher but...: Although genetic factors definitely play a role in autism, the exact risk for various scenarios can be hard to pin down. Having had a child with autism definitely increases your risk of having another by 10-20 fold. Having the family history you describe probably increases the risk too, but less so. Genetic counselors can give you the very latest numbers, but there's no reall way to prediction.
