When two minors have children, there is a 25% chance with every pregnancy that a thal major child will be born. The odds should not be risked. You should seek genetic counseling as a couple to learn your options.

The table in our gallery shows the possibilities.

Please learn more before trying to become pregnant.

All we are saying is give thals a chance.
