How To Diagnose And Treat Klinefelter Syndrome

Klinefelter syndrome is a chromosomal disorder that occurs when a male is born with an additional X chromosome. Klinefelter syndrome is an uncommon genetic disorder, and it can only be diagnosed after laboratory tests are completed to determine if an individual has the disorder. Some males with Klinefelter syndrome have no symptoms or only mild ones, but some have more noticeable symptoms. Men with Klinefelter syndrome tend to have breast enlargement, smaller genitals, lack of facial and bodily hair, very late or unfinished puberty, and abnormal body proportions.
