Any chances of having mentally challenged kids when sibling is mentally challenged?
human
Hi,I am planning marry a girl , who's brother is mentally challenged. I want to know, when we have kids , is there any chance that the child may be mentally challenged? as there is a blood related brother who is having problem and there may be some genes/DNA in siblings which can cause this. Please advise.

HiThanks for using healthcare magicMental retardation can happen due to multiple factors like birth trauma, poor antenatal care, infection, poor oxygen supply, genetic disorder in family etc. In genetic cases, genes run in family and would transmit from one member to another. If your partner has such kind of genes, that you can go for any genes analysis. Thanks
