Can people with cerebral palsy get married?

Patient's question:

My child has had cerebral palsy since he was a child. I don't know how he got it, and I've visited many hospitals and taken a lot of medicine. But it just doesn't work. Can my child still get married and have children in the future?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, basically it is possible, because cerebral palsy does not affect the reproductive organs, so it does not affect fertility. However, it is divided into congenital cerebral palsy and acquired cerebral palsy! Congenital cerebral palsy can marry but is not suitable for childbirth, because congenital cerebral palsy has certain genetic factors that can be passed on to the next generation, which is not good for the next generation of children. If it is acquired, then there is no problem, because it is cerebral palsy, the consciousness is weak, and women need full support from family during pregnancy, then they can give birth to a healthy baby.
