Welcome to the TSSS
The Society provides accurate and up-to-date information on Turner Syndrome and the many aspects of living with the condition on a daily basis. We hope you find our website useful and friendly.
What is Turner Syndrome?
The following description of Turner Syndrome (TS) and explanation of some of the issues involved in living with the condition is not definitive and a doctor or endocrine specialist should always be consulted whenever a diagnosis of TS has been given.Living with Turner Syndrome
It should be emphasised that each girl/woman with TS is an individual and what is relevant to one is not necessarily relevant to another.Treatment for TS
There are a number of treatments available to those with TS, and each girl/woman should be treated according to her individual needs. TS is a ‘cradle to grave’ condition and as such should be treated throughout life in a variety of ways.How to join or donate
