    Like Klinefelter syndrome, the presence of additional X chromosomes affects the male reproductive system, can cause physical abnormalities, and can affect cognitive development. When comparing 47,XXY and 48,XXXY, there is a greater risk for congenital malformations and more medical problems in those with 48,XXXY. [2]

  5. XYYY syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XYYY_syndrome

    The presentation of XYYY syndrome is variable and at this time not entirely clear. As all known cases were diagnosed postnatally (after birth), and the similar XYY syndrome is known to have a milder phenotype in prenatally than postnatally diagnosed cases, it is suspected that many cases of XYYY syndrome may be mild or asymptomatic.

[6] In cases of mosaicism, the symptoms are usually fewer, and possibly none occur at all. [13] Diagnosis is based on physical signs and genetic testing. [3] No cure for Turner syndrome is known. [14] Treatment may help with ...

  9. XY gonadal dysgenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_gonadal_dysgenesis

    XY complete gonadal dysgenesis, also known as Swyer syndrome, is a type of defect hypogonadism in a person whose karyotype is 46,XY. Though they typically have normal vulvas, [1] the person has underdeveloped gonads, fibrous tissue termed "streak gonads", and if left untreated, will not experience puberty.
