HME is not an STD. It’s a genetic condition you’re born with and cannot be transmitted any other way

No it is only passed down the genetics

It is not contagious. It is usually passed on through a parent. However, it may be a spontaneous disease.

No, this is a hereditary condition that you're either born with or you're not.

Only from parent to child. It is genetic so only passed in the genes. I doubt if the environment can have any effect on the bumps, though there can be a larger effect on the mental development than most as there may be both disability and special ability that would benefit by aware treatment and support.
