Turner syndrome is a rare genetic disorder affecting girls and women. The cause of Turner syndrome is a completely or partially missing X chromosome. Treatment for Turner syndrome may include hormone therapy.

Turner syndrome is named after Henry Turner who, in 1938, was one of the first doctors to report on the disorder in the medical literature.

The Turner Syndrome Support Society is a national charity caring for the needs of those with Turner Syndrome throughout the United Kingdom.
