Does Ehlers Danlos have a cure?
Is there a cure for Ehlers Danlos? Current treatment landscape and research progress, medically reviewed, plus patient experiences.
No. Not yet. We don't even know what gene causes the EDS type Hypermobility.

There is no cure

No. It is invisible, untreatable, and incurable.

No it dosen t but we keep looking

No but we live in hope

Not currently. Research is being done to isolate the causes.

No. My hypothesis is that our breeding pool is too concentrated(cousins mating with cousins) and our weak genetic markers are pairing with the same recessive genes causing Ehlers Danlos. Only through pairing with stronger genes can we lessen the number of individuals being born with EDS.

Nope. Gene therapy is a possibility eventually but right now all that can be done is manage symptoms as well as possible.

Not remotely, however CRISPR and gene therapy seem promising in the near future

No, there is no cure and very little treatment.

No we can’t edit our genes. YET!

While there is no cure for the Ehlers-Danlos syndromes, there is treatment for symptoms, and there are preventative measures that are helpful for most.

There is no cure. There is a possibility gene therapy could do something, nothing promising exists yet.
