Associated medical conditions

In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to the large number of associated medical conditions and health problems that occur more frequently in people with ASD than in people with typical development.

They include various psychiatric and neurological disorders, digestive or nutritional problems, immune system disorders and others. More than 90% of people with ASD suffer from comorbidities.
