How to spot the early signs of autism??

Autism

Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects the brain's ability. About 22 lakh people in india currently have autism. It greatly affects functions such as language skills, speech skills, learning skills, and integration skills. It is caused by a defect that appears in the baby's gene. Children born to married parents in a close relationship are more likely to have it. Late marriage and late childbearing lead to this deficiency.


Genetic testing

There are no direct tests to determine the impact of autism. It can only be known by the behavior of the user. However, the presence of Fragile X disease can be detected by testing for the presence of the FMR1 gene in the blood. In this way, it is possible to determine whether he or his heirs are at risk for autism. Since there is no cure for these two, prevention is the only solution to these. In addition, autistic children must begin speech and learning exercises by the age of three. 

To this end, if women routinely perform the FMR1 genetic test, along with tests for genetic diseases such as Down syndrome during pregnancy, they can predict the risk of developing autism. Prepare to provide brain nerve training for autistic children early on. It may help to improve their quality of life!
