Question: Good morning doc can AS nd AS genotype marry each other and is there something they can do not to give birth to SS
Answer: Good Morning yes they can marry each other is it advisable for them to marry each other NO it isnt They stand a very high chance or risk of having SS babies about 25 so it is not advisable at all No point bringing kids into the world to suffer pain  

There are ways to prevent the occurrence of an SS child from 2 AS parents taking the InVitro fertilisation testtube babies route provides this opportunity Some tests can be done before the baby is put in the womb to ascertain if it is SS or not so the ones that are not SS are the ones implanted but it is an expensive procedure

My advice Love is not blind 2 AS people should avoid getting married at all costs

Question: Good morning doc can AS nd AS genotype marry each other and is there something they can do not to give birth to SS
Answer: Good morning
If AS and AS marry for each pregnancy theres a 25 chance of an SS baby 50 chance of an AS baby and 25 chance of an AA baby 
Sadly some couples have all their kids as AS while some have both AS SS and even AA
The truth is that predicting cant really be done asides invitro fertilization where the genetic make up of the zygote is checked before implantation into the uterus and the procedure is quite expensive
It is therefore advisable that AS and AS dont marry to save the parents the stress of ceaseless hospital admissions and save the child of countless crises and pains 
Thanks
