"In 1942 Dr Harry Klinefelter and his co-workers published a study about nine men who had enlarged breasts, sparse facial & body hair & small, firm, infertile testes. By the late 1950s other researchers discovered that men with Klinefelter's Syndrome had an extra sex chromosome giving 47XXY instead of the more usual 46XY. Based on studies in the US in the 1970s it is clear that Klinefelter Syndrome is one of the commonest genetic abnormalities known; 1 in 500 to 1 in 1000 live births."

Hi Ron, do you have access to the full text of this article? is it maybe possible to upload it here, so we can read it? (I did try to download it, but they ask for 60 $...). Thank you a lot, anyway.

Thanks for the information. I just got another blood clot and am interested in finding out why.
It is not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me.

Thanks Ducks. I have given it to my doctor. Then I found out she's on a weeks holiday so I can't see her till she gets back. I think she's taken the time off to read it.

  • David Duckslammer Said:


The information on fertility options is all brand new as of 2008. Up until now, it was automatically assumed every XXY was sterile. It's not true. With assisted fertility techniques, many adult XXYs can parent a child and quite a number of us already have.



Hmmmnnn, interesting hyperbole. Of course, not true - from my site, 1999:

"Generally speaking XXYs and variants typically produce zero sperm that would normally appear in a sperm test, but that does not mean that sperm is non-existent. Recent medical fertility improvements include a testicular biopsy to work out the reason behind an absence of sperm cells (azoospermia), and is also used for testicular sperm extraction (TESE). Testicular sperm extraction coupled with in vitro fertilisation can result in a full term pregnancy."

Dan Becker achieved this in 1996-1997, or thereabouts - I met the proof - baby boy - at the National KS&A conference in Chicago in '97 or '98.

For some further reading on Dan's odyssey please read his wife's report:
