The family (and the individual with polydactylism) might get a lot of questions about the disorder. The polydactyl person might have mobility issues as well, so the family may have to help them along.

Is polydactyly common in men or women?

Polydactyly is more common in men, because it is a genetic disorder. Because females have 2 X chromosomes, a recessive trait passed down on one will be covered by the dominant trait on their other X chromosome for no polydactyly. Males though, have an X and Y chromosome which means that that the Y chromosome, carrying no trait for polydactyly, will not affect an X chromosome with the allele for polydactyly. Hence, polydactyly is found in men more than women.
