Please what does it mean that my son has a and b thalassemia?
It means that he has an inherited type of anemia. In other words,

either one of your couple is an alpha thalassemia patient and one is a beta thalassemia patient,

or one of you is a mixed alpha and beta thalassemia patient.

Thalassemia is an anemia caused by an inherited change in the genes that make up the units of hemoglobin (alpha and beta globin), resulting in a certain impairment of hemoglobin synthesis.

If the disorder is mild,

there are no other major problems.

But if the disorder is severe,

it can cause a host of other problems.

While it may seem that both the alpha and beta pearl protein genes are affected,

the symptoms of the different types of geoplasia don't actually accumulate,

instead, they may diminish each other.

So having both alpha and beta dysbiosis is secondary,

what the degree of alpha and beta dysbiosis is is primary.

There is no other information to determine what degree of geopenia your son has.

Please add the results of the genetic test for geopenia if you have them.
