What Is Noonan Syndrome?
Our genetics help to determine a great deal about how we develop physically and mentally. Errors in copying DNA can happen during procreation, however, and some people are born with certain genetic disorders. One example of these conditions is Noonan syndrome, which occurs quite rarely.
Noonan syndrome causes people to take on different physical and facial characteristics than other people. It can also cause them other issues such as having problems with certain vital organs, as well as experiencing some mental difficulties. The symptoms can range in severity, and many people with the condition will live a relatively normal life.
