When both partners carry genetic variants associated with Thalassemia, the risk of having an affected child depends on the type of Thalassemia, the specific genes and variants carried by each partner, as well as the combination of their genotypes. In particular, given the genetic complexity of the condition, not all couples who “both carry Thalassemia-related variants” have the same level of reproductive risk.
