Does any one have turner syndrome??

I was wondering if anyone has turner syndrome. I was diagnosed with ts when i was 18. I never met anyone with the same condition. If you are on medications what kind and what are they for??

It was rather late for your diagnoses? This condition is usually determined early on in a girls development. The main drugs of choice is growth hormone & estrogen because the X chromosome affects growth & puberty developments.
