Get to know Autism

 （05/08/23）
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects social communication, social interaction, and restricted or repetitive behavior in children and adults. The cause of autism is not known, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Some common signs and symptoms of autism include delayed or absent speech, difficulty in social interaction and communication, repetitive movements or behaviors, difficulty with change or transitions, and a preference for solitary activities. However, the symptoms and severity of autism can vary widely from person to person, and no two people with autism are exactly alike.

Autism is diagnosed through a process that combines a thorough medical and developmental evaluation with comprehensive testing and observation.

The earlier the diagnosis, the earlier intervention and support can be provided to improve the individual's quality of life.
