A member asked:
If a mom has schizophrenia, how much percentage chance does her normal daughter have, of getting a schizophrenic child?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pretty good data: Check out this summary site: http://www.Schizophrenia.Com/research/hereditygen.Htm available data suggest about a 5% risk, compared to 1% in the general population. That's a 5-fold increase in risk, but it's still pretty low, overall.
