How possible is it for someone to find a cure for Turner syndrome?

Turner Syndrome is a chromosome abnormality not a disease therefore it can't be "cured"..
well unless they find some way of correcting all cells in the body......
while it can not be cured a lot can be done to help girls and women affected by it.. Growth hormone can increase height, estrogen treatment helps them develop a feminine shape, surgery can solve heart problems, medication can help with thyroid problems, diet and medication can help if diabetes is present.......IVF can overcome fertility problems. And a caring and supportive family (and friends) can help with emotional problems

Eventually, there will be a cure for every disease. That is how the universe works.
