What are the symptoms of this disorder?
There are a lot of physical symptoms for Turner Syndrome so here is a list that you should look for. Being shorter than normal, and starting puberty at a late age are two of the main symptoms of Turner Syndrome which effects females development sexually and physically. Some women will have a different appearance with arms that turn out at the elbow, a webbed neck with a low hairline and a smaller lower jaw. Some symptoms that are not as easy to detect include things such as kidney or heart problems, infertility, hearing issues, diabetes, and high blood pressure. All these symptoms could be a sign of Turner Syndrome but to make sure ask your doctor to take a karyotype just in case.
