Genetics

🐾GiGi🐾 • Sat, Jul 01

The topic came up about someone being BRCA1 positive and how there was a 50% chance of it being passed down to any children. (Here's a link for further info if you want to look into this... https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/genetics/brca-fact-sheet)

The question isn't about the facts and numbers so sources won't play a part in this. The question is what is your personal opinion on what percentage risk would you decide to not have biological children. So if the studies backed the numbers and you were told that you would pass down a genetic mutation of some sort to your children that would significantly effect their life, what % would be your max?
