Common Questions and Answers about Fetal development y chromosome

fetal-development

Avatar m tn m sorry to hear about the people you know who have experienced miscarriages. I was reading about the X and Y chromosome awhile ago, and I read that in general, more miscarriages will happen with boys because the Y chromosome has more defects. Actually, the X chromosome, since it can go through recombination with another X chromosome can get rid of defective genes, but with the Y chromosome they just keep piling on.
Avatar f tn Sorry to hear this. I had never heard of this and did some research. This is what I found. Hope it helps and prayers for you && the little one :) CPCs can form within this structure and come from fluid trapped within this spongy layer of cells, much like a soap bubble or a blister. CPCs are often called "soft signs" or fetal ultrasound "markers" because some studies have found a weak association between CPCs and fetal chromosome abnormalities.
Avatar f tn This patient has two FMR1 alleles in the normal size range, both with 31 CGG repeats.
Avatar f tn Yes the mans sperm determines the sex of the baby. It depends on if the x or y chromosome meets the egg first.
Avatar f tn Sorry, I just googled and it's affects the sex chromosome in girls. I'm having a boy, they normally have one x, one y, but the DNA blood test said there's an extra X chromosome.
Avatar m tn s sperm each have an X sex chromosome and the other half each have a Y sex chromosome. If a sperm with a Y chromosome fertilizes the egg (X), a male baby will result (XY). If a sperm with an X chromosome fertilizes the egg (X), then the baby will be female (XX). Perhaps you are concerned about this kind of loss: When a male masturbates, it generally takes a day for the number of sperm to come back to normal.
Avatar f tn The harmony or MaterniT21 tests are looking at dna. If you had one of those it's 99.9%. They look at the X and y chromosome. If there is no y chromosome it's a girl.
Avatar n tn ) so I guess it was accurate for me
Avatar f tn s all up to your partner whether or not a Y chromosome sperm makes it to your egg ( a boy) or an X ( a girl). Although it might be fun for you and your partner to try, I think it's all left to chance. Good luck!
Avatar f tn Genetic testing is pretty foolproof. There's either a Y chromosome or there isn't. Pretty hard to screw it up when you're trained for it. I see absolutely no reason to doubt the results you were given.
Avatar f tn This patient has two FMR1 alleles in the normal size range, both with 31 CGG repeats. Analysis of X and Y chromosome specific sequences was consistent with a sample from a female individual Where it says: this patient has TWO FMR1 alleles - is that me or the baby they are referring to, bc that would mean - GIRLl, but after says Analysis of X and Y chromosome which would be BOY we are findingout the sex in a few weeks but am curious if this tells us something.
Avatar f tn A girl takes two X chromosomes (XX) and a boy takes an X and a Y chromosome (XY).. You, being a female, always provide one of the X chromosomes. The other chromosome (contained in the sperm, provided by the male), will determine the gender. If the male provides the second X chromosome, you've got yourself a girl. If the male provided a Y chromosome, you've got yourself a boy. Gender has nothing to do with who did "more" work making the baby..
Avatar f tn If it was done by your dr it's pretty much 99%. The way blood testing works is when they test your blood, if they see Y chromosome pop up that means you're having a boy, because women don't have Y chromosomes. If they don't see anything different, it's a girl because her chromosomes would match yours. That being said there is always the chance the test wasn't done properly or something got tainted during the testing.
Avatar n tn how to improve and increase y chromosome in male sperms because i want a baby boy so please reply thanks
Avatar f tn When you conceived does not determine sex. A girl will have two x chromosomes, xx, and a boy will have an x and y chromosome, xy. The female cell, the egg, provides the x chromosome bc that's all we have. The male cell, the sperm, provides either an x or y. Each sperm carries one or the other. In short, whichever sperm wins the race determines sex. The sex is determined at conception. There is nothing you can do to try to choose the sex of your baby in natural conception.
1350615 tn?1282147706 The mothers Egg ALWAYS contains the X Chromosome whereas the male Holds both X and Y Chromosomes. If the egg is fertilised by sperm containing X Chromosome the baby will be a Girl (XX) and if the sperm contains Y Chromosome you will have a boy (XY).. I know this doesnt answer your question as of yet BUT I thought id tell you how it all works. Also there is a myth if you hang Low, its A Boy, If you're high Its a girl... I think you're having a boy. Congrats Btw.
Avatar f tn Males have an X and Y chromosome. Females have two X chromosomes.
Avatar n tn They take blood from the mother and test it to see if it contains the male chromosome (cant remember which that is x, or y chromosome) but if it does contain the male chromosome that would mean the baby is a boy and if not it's a girl.
Avatar f tn ________________ Trisomy 13 (also called Patau syndrome) is a genetic disorder in which a person has three copies of genetic material from chromosome 13, instead of the usual two copies. Rarely, the extra material may be attached to another chromosome (translocation). Trisomy 13 occurs when extra DNA from chromosome 13 appears in some or all of the body's cells. Trisomy 13 -- the presence of an extra (third) chromosome 13 in all of the cells.
Avatar f tn Its has to do with genes but not like everyone thinks baby ends up developing an extra chromosome... doctors and scientists aren't 100% sure what causes the development of the extra chromosome. They have linked cases of being too young or too old to DS but there's not a lot of proof saying this is the cause ...
Avatar f tn The presence of a single transverse palmar crease can be, but is not always, a symptom associated with abnormal medical conditions, such as fetal alcohol syndrome, or with genetic chromosomal abnormalities, including Down syndrome (chromosome 21), cri du chat syndrome (chromosome 5), Klinefelter syndrome, Noonan syndrome (chromosome 12), Patau syndrome (chromosome 13), Edward's syndrome (chromosome 18), and Aarskog-Scott syndrome (X-linked recessive).
Avatar f tn autosomes- normal, sex cromosomes- normal, Chromosome analysis with GTG banding showed no structural or numerical abnormalities, then what could be the reason for omphalocele? can gestational diabetics be a reason, if yes please suggest what should be done inorder to avoid such a condition?
Avatar m tn I guess I should have said "the sperm carrying the Y chromosome" and "the sperm carrying the X chromosome" instead of "the male sperm" and "the female sperm." (Of course, all sperm come from the man.
