A member asked:

How long can antegrade amnesia last in a teenager?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: It depends on what caused the amnesia as well as the degree of restoration of the brain after the insult. For some it may only be days, for others weeks or months, and yet for others it may never come back.
