Fetus's tissue testing on d&c (8 weeks and 2nd early mc) showed turners syndrome in the feutus. future pregnancy implications of this? any precautions

Dr. Brian Nguyen answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Generally no: In general, in each subsequent pregnancy, the chance of having another pregnancy affected by Turner syndrome would not be increased given that it occurs due to a random error in the splitting of chromosomes during the creation of sperm usually, though sometimes also the egg. Unlikely to recur in a first time case.
