Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

Prevention:

Genetic counseling is recommended for prospective parents with a family history of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Affected parents should be aware of the type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome they have and its mode of inheritance. This may be determined through testing and evaluation suggested by your health care provider or genetic counselor.

For those who have significant risks to their health, identification of risk may help prevent severe complications by vigilant screening and lifestyle alterations.
