About
Autism

Autism typically manifests within the first three years of human life. It is caused by a mental development disorder that affects brain functionality. Autism is characterized by 3 primary concerns – social interaction challenges, disruption in verbal and non-verbal communication, and repetitive, heightened behavior or interest. Males are typically more prone to autistic disorder than females.
Persons with autism are likely to have extreme reactions to certain triggers or stimuli, like light, touch, and sound. Autism is life-long, and its negative influences can usually be managed with professional care.

It cannot be cured because it’s simply a brain function anomaly that can also be seen on brain scans when compared to that of normal individuals. However, with early detection and treatment during childhood, there can be significant improvement in children with autism.

Key Points to Note About Autism

Autism usually manifests in early childhood. Typical signs include social awkwardness, difficulty in verbal and non-verbal communication, poor cognitive skills requiring extra effort, disabilities in key areas of interest, etc.

Autism isn’t curable, but its effects can be treated to have less negative impact on the individual over time. With men being more likely to be autistic than women, it’s important to check for its signs right from an individual’s early childhood.
