Prevalence of HSD alone is unknown, though previous estimates have placed the combined prevalence of hEDS and HSD between 194.2 per 100 000 (0.19%) or 1 in 500 people. [7] The condition is relatively common in those attending musculoskeletal services. [12] [13]
The ongoing study has screened over 1,000 people who have been diagnosed with hEDS by the 2017 criteria to evaluate their genome for a common mutation. To date, 200 people with hEDS have had whole genome sequencing, and 500 have had whole exome sequencing; this study aims to increase those numbers significantly. [citation needed]
Joint hypermobility is often correlated with hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS, known also by EDS type III or Ehlers–Danlos syndrome hypermobility type (EDS-HT)). Ehlers–Danlos syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by mutations or hereditary genes, but the genetic defect that produced hEDS is largely unknown. In conjunction with ...
The Ehlers–Danlos Society is an international nonprofit organization dedicated to patient support, scientific research, advocacy, and increasing awareness for the Ehlers–Danlos syndromes (EDS) and hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD). [1] The society has organized multiple events around the world in an attempt to raise awareness for EDS ...
3β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Δ 5-4 isomerase (3β-HSD) (EC 1.1.1.145) is an enzyme that catalyzes the biosynthesis of the steroid progesterone from pregnenolone, 17α-hydroxyprogesterone from 17α-hydroxypregnenolone, and androstenedione from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in the adrenal gland.

Also, hEDS is not the ONLY cause for hypermobility. Hypermobility can have causes that are not hEDS: Other medical conditions such as Marfan syndrome can cause it. Also, children tend to have more lax joints, and I think to some extent you can become hypermobile by training (as in contortionists, although some contortionists have underlying ...
