THE ARCHIVE
Welcome to our Non-Profit’s Klinefelter syndrome blog series. We are dedicated to giving people all over the world a safe space to share their stories. Living With XXY is changing the way the world views Klinefelter syndrome (47 XXY). Our community is growing fast as people focus on spreading awareness and learn to focus on the positive traits. Our Klinefelter syndrome blog series offers a wide rage of stories and information. Every week we launch a new story from families experiencing prenatal diagnosis, to parents finding out during the adolescences years, to men finding out after 18 years of age. Please celebrate these incredible stories with us and we hope you will one day feel empowered to share your own.
