Why there is no cure?

There's no cure for it because it is a genetic disease, which means every cell of one's body is affected (or posses the faulty gene that attribute to this disease). The syndrome is due to a mutation in the FMR1 gene on the X chromosome. This mutation leads to a reduction or absence of a protein called fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP), which is important for normal brain development.

Does that help?

Thank you.

No current cure because it is a genetic disorder.

Can medicinal drugs orally or injected after positive confirmation of Fragile X syndrome with the assistance of CVS genetic disorder testing given to pregnant woman after 14 weeks in specific intervals till 9 months i.e 36 weeks?.
After 36 weeks baby will be born.

The medicine will act as a vaccine and contains the exact necessary protein/s required for the Foetus Brain which was lacking due to Fragile X Syndrome. I.e. fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP).

Do you feel this method will work with lot of research?

Unfortunately, no. Fragile X syndrome is a genetic disorder that exists prior to conception and is caused likely by a faulty meiosis process.
