What are the causes of childhood autism?

Patient's question:

The child is very healthy in all aspects, but now that she has started kindergarten, she always plays alone and doesn't have any friends. It seems like she prefers to be by herself, and I feel this is not normal. I'm seeking help: What could be the causes of childhood autism?

Doctor's answer:

The causes of childhood autism are not yet very clear, but it is possible that they may be related to genetic factors and some factors during pregnancy. Multiple factors are involved. Therefore, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for relevant examinations to identify the cause before starting symptomatic treatment. Generally, children with this condition tend to prefer staying alone in small corners and playing by themselves without interacting or talking to others.
