Types of EDS Q&A with Dr. David Saperstein - #shorts

Dr. David Saperstein addresses a common question about Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS): whether an individual can have more than one type. He clarifies that while it is theoretically possible for a person to inherit two different types of EDS—one from each parent—this occurrence is extraordinarily rare. Typically, a person will have only one type of EDS. He also notes that having symptoms that overlap into different types does not equate to having multiple forms of EDS.
