A dominantly inherited disorder means you only need to inherit the mutated gene from one parent to be affected. This means that if you have a child with an unaffected partner, there's still a 50% chance of your child developing the condition. However, there are some medications in homoeopathy that may reduce the risk and help. You may reach us with the details of the mother and kids to get the best help possible.
