Overview
Other Diagnostic Studies
Karyotyping
- In every chromosomal disorder that is leading to delayed puberty, karyotyping is a reliable way of diagnosis.
- Karyotyping is the way of direct visualization of human chromosomes in a view.
- The main syndromes which are the cause of delayed puberty, Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome can be diagnosed by karyotyping.
- Turner syndrome is characterized by one single X chromosome in females, instead of one pair of X chromosomes.[1]
- Klinefelter syndrome is characterized by two X chromosomes along with Y chromosome in males, instead of one X and one Y chromosomes.
