my grandson’s fragile x test report is normal. What else can be cause of his autism? Any help?
If your lowercase x in italic font looks fragile, then you probably need a better maths font :-D
Thank you for the information.
As Binary says it is quite unlikely that you will be able to find out the cause of your grandson's autism. There's lots of research into causes of autism, but with the exception of Fragile X, it's not possible to be sure about why individual children are autistic.
Here's a link to an article summarising recent thinking about causes of autism:

You might find this comparison of Fragile X and autism helpful too:

I'm not too sure what the fragile x test is? Whilst there is now proof that autism can be genetic, it doesn't always run in families. There is still very little known about the causes of autism so I think you'd be unlikely to find out why your grandson has autism.
