Beta to marry who u love, than u marry someone for genotype reasons... technology will help if u want to have children...

odexbrktru: AA + SS, AS + AS are Not advised to marry

AA + AA, SS + AS, AA + AS can marry each other

Medical Advise

That's totally wrong! SS + AS can marry ke? And have 75% chance of having an SS abi? Then you went ahead to write that AA + SS are not advised to marry, I'll like to know what biological journal or text you got that from.

[size=13pt]That poster said 99.9% of women want to conceive and used the Health section as an example. The Health section of Nairaland is not an accurate representation of women and their opinions of conception.[/size]

There may be no solid stats on the number of women that want to have their own children but those figures are not far from the reality (considering this part of the world). I also wouldn't use the health section thread as reference tho.

kennyfao: Hmmmm! Its get uglier now. For ur information I don't look sick cos I have access to good medical facility so I have no cause to seek for sympathy and mind u am only urging u to be realistic so stop this harsh words. This is a social forum and nt an abusive forum.

Please my dear,go and read my posts,I abhor insults on this forum. But I will rest my case.At least sha,I have made my point.God bless

WOW!!!
U get mind o. Ur children will be AS. Hmmmm
Pls how often does she have crisis and how well do u know how to handle her crisis. Do u know the first thing to do when she has crisis in the middle of the night?
U need to know atleast the basics of caring for her and ensure she takes her Meds regularly.
Also pls speak to ur family Doc, he is in a better position to advise u.

What do you mean by 'u get mind o'

That is how you people start!
a simple question and you start by injecting poision into your response.

You have advised him to speak to his family doctor,learn for next time, that should suffice!

Infact,God will bless you! What a mature and straight forward response.

Like u said its a social forum and I am entitled to my opinion.
Since its my opinion, it doesn't really matter if u like it cos it was not posted for u to like.

I posted what I felt, so stick to ur own opinions please.

Now I knw who u are! Case settled

It is very very important pls! Infact, that is the topic of the lecture i'm listening to, at the moment! Make sure you know your genotype as well as ur partner's..prevention is better than cure!

ItsModella: Extremely important, especially if you're considering marrying the person. I can't even stress how important it is.

You can.

SniperInADiaper:

Indeed.. Because you may marry the perfect person who suits your genotype best and then find out after marriage they are unable to have children.. What then?

SniperInADiaper:

My point is though.. Even if you marry somebody compatible with your genotype just for the sake of having children.. there is still a chance you wont be able to have children..

Pessimist.

dj5naira:


Pessimist.

Am a realist.

macfarland: If u are AS, go ahead and marry your love who is also AS...No qualms. When she is pregnant, go to hospital for a test at 1 - 2 months of d pregnancy...if it shows d baby is SS...u just terminate the pregnancy. Finish!

That would be murder raised to the power of the highest order.

Am a realist.

...with a pessimistic view.

0% important.
