Has anyone heard of XYY syndrome??

Question

My doctor called me after my panorama and told me my son has something called that. Please let me know if anyone can give me advice how to handle this I know it's minor ish but I never been through this before.

Answer

It's not anything major that I know of. He will be a little bit taller than you expect him to be and chances are a slightly higher IQ. That's all I know about it. You can ask your doctor more and do some googling for more information. Your doctor is the best person to ask.

Answer

It was once called the Super male syndrome because they believed with another extra Y chromosome they would be more aggressive but that's not neccessarily the case. I have no experience personally because it is rare but I learned about it in biology, he might have some learning disabilities and behavioral problems like impulsivity. They usually grow taller than normal and have severe acne when they're in their teens.
