What is Fragile X Syndrome? Podcast


Listen Later

This episode on the podcast today is all about Fragile X. Before we start, I just want to mention that there are a few other names out there for this and some of those are FRAXA syndrome, fraX syndrome, FXS, marker x syndrome, and martin bell syndrome. Throughout this episode, I will be referring to it as Fragile X. 

I’m answering one of the most common questions that I get today, and that is ‘What is Fragile X Syndrome?’

I actually get quite a few questions about fragile x every month. And it’s not something that you can easily find a lot of information on. I actually wrote a blog post about this a couple of years back, and I’ll link to that down below for you too.
