What Are The Chances Of Baby Inheriting Aspergers Syndrome From Parent?
Hi, I understand your concern and as such Asperger s disorder has got a genetic background. Currently, there are no tests which can identify the genetic background of this particular problem. But as such it is known in the medical literature that the chance is 0.7%. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
