Nandini has thalassemia minor but I (karan) am tested and I do not have it. But my mother (karan's) has thalassemia minor so there might be chances of having some traits of it in me" so my question is there a possibility of our (karan & nandini's) future child to have thalassemia major?" I am only concerned about thalassemia major. If the child has thalassemia minor it doesn't matter.
