There is no way to prevent rett syndrome. This is because it is a genetic disorder that doesn't show until usually around the age of 12 to 18 months of age and occur over a period of weeks or months. In boys this disorder will severely injure the child. In girls the disorder stays with them as they get older. This is such a bad disorder because it is unnoticed and can severely injure the child. You can test if you are a carrier by getting a diagnosis. You can also continue by seeing a genetic therapist for more help.

Can Down syndrome be detected before its symptoms appear?

No Actually there is testing to determine if your child has rett syndrome, although prior to 1999 they were no tests available. Fortunately there have been great strides in genetic testing and with advanced medical research and the discovery of the Mecp2 gene by Huda Zoghbi and her team of lab research assistants, the situation has changed. Currently there is a prenatal test that can be taken to determine if the fetus tht you carry has CDKL5-Related Atypical Rett Syndrome as well as MECP2-Related Disorders. Here is the links to the laboratories that currently provide genetic testing for rett syndrome: http://www.genetests.org/query?testid=251630 http://www.genetests.org/query?testid=21594
