Patient's question:
Doctor: My boyfriend and I are about to get married, but we want to get a medical check-up at the hospital. Because his older sister is deaf and mute since childhood, and we don't know what caused it. I'm worried about whether it's hereditary and whether it will affect our future children. For the health of our future children, we want to go to the hospital to check if he has any genetic markers.Could you please tell me what kind of tests my boyfriend needs to take at the hospital? Can these tests determine if there is a genetic risk?
Thank you, please reply.
First follow-up question: Thank you very much.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Any regular municipal hospital can diagnose it.
