Huntington’s Disease Society India A Non-Profit Organization Envision Freeing The Suffering Of HD Affected Individuals VIEW MORE INFO
Welcome to of India
Huntington Disease Society Of India (HDSI) is a Non-Profit Organization Working Towards Welfare of Huntington Disease Affected Families & Bringing Awareness about HD in Society

Huntington’s disease (HD) is a progressive, neuropsychiatric genetic disorder that causes the malfunction or death of neurons (nerve cells) in the brain. As a result, a gradual decline in the physical and mental abilities over time occurs generally during their middle age years (though the age at onset is variable).. Every child of a parent with HD has a 50% chance of carrying the faulty gene usually. The math may not work strictly but it is on an average estimation. It is same like the chance of getting a head or a tail when you flip a coin. It is not dependent on the gender of the person. In India the awareness is less and treatment options are largely inaccessible. To cater to it we have envisioned HDSI.
