There are very few outward signs of Fragile X syndrome. Mental retardation is the hallmark of this condition and, in females, about the only finding. There is no specific treatment of Fragile X syndrome. Instead, effort is directed toward training and education of the child with this condition. The outcome depends on the extent of retardation.
Complications vary depending on the type and severity of symptoms.
