Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Hi I am female and aged 29 and was born with BPES and had the operation when I was about 3 years old. It was inherited becuase some males and females on my dads side of the family have it. As my eyes look more or less normal I have not given it any thought until I read an article recently that it may cause infertility. My Dad has it mildly and did not have an operation (not sure if they could do operations like that when he was young) - his eyes just look a bit small and droopy. My aunt (Dads sister) had it severely but she had a baby quite normally when she was my age. My grandad (Dads dad) also had it and he fathered four children. I am now really scared that I am infertile although I do not have any other health problems or problems with my periods or other symptoms. Does anyone have any information which may help???
