A member asked:
Can my cousin with ehlers danlos syndrome live a full life if she mostly has skin involvement and not organ involvement? and can she have kids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ehlers Danlos Syndrome has many unusual internal problems, but is unlikely to prevent pregnancy. It would be well to have genetic counseling however, prior to conception.
