G6PD deficiency stands for glucose 6 phosphate deyhdrogenase dificiency. G6PD is a blood disorder that causes hemolytic anemia. Hemolytic anemia or hemolysis is abnormal breakdown or destruction of red blood cells. Episodes of hemolytic anemia can be triggered by illness, infection, several medications (such as aspirin) and several foods (such as fava beans, legumes, and blueberries). • Watch this video to learn more about G6PDD and how you get this condition. • Clarification: At 6:21 this video says there's a 50% chance of having a girl carrying G6PD and 50% chance having a boy without G6PD. That may be confusing to some people. If the father has G6PD then all his daughters will be a carrier (100%). If the affected father has sons, none of them will have G6PD. When couples have children, they have a 50% chance of having a girl and 50% chance of having a boy. When the father has G6PD, there is a still a 50% chance of a girl and 50% chance of a boy. There is then a 0% chance the boy will have G6PD and a 100% chance of a girl who is a carrier of G6PD. Sorry for the confusion.
