The chances of inheriting muscular dystrophy from your parents largely depend on the specific type of muscular dystrophy and the inheritance pattern associated with it. For instance, Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies are X-linked recessive disorders, meaning that mostly males are affected and females can be carriers. If a mother is a carrier, there is a 50% chance of passing the gene to her sons, who would be affected, and a 50% chance for daughters to be carriers. Other types may follow different inheritance patterns, so genetic counseling is often recommended for families with a history of the condition.
