What are the odds of my 2 sons having the same intolerance? e has fructose int. could c have the same?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1/4: For a kid to have hereditary fructose intolerance both asymptomatic parents carry the gene and pass it to there kid. Statistical risk is 1/4 of FI with each conception.By chance,50% would be carriers and 25% would have no gene. However, in reality, every kid could be effected since conception could produce any combination.
