Galactosemia occurs when an enzyme, called 'galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase' (GALT) is either missing or not working properly so the children are examined carefully for this enzyme
Galactosemia is a rare genetic disorder, and the incidence varies by population. In the United States, it is estimated that about 1 in 30,000 to 60,000 newborns are diagnosed with galactosemia each year.
