Summary
This study aims to create a large genetic database of people with Turner syndrome, a rare condition where a person is missing all or part of an X chromosome. Researchers want to compare the genes of women with Turner syndrome who are fertile with those who are not. Up to 500 participants of any age, along with their biological parents and relatives, will provide blood, saliva, or tissue samples for genetic testing.
