<bot>: Hello, if you don't carry any defective thalassemia genes then the worst scenario for your child Chat Doctor.  Thalassemia minor causes a very mild chronic anemia that won't prevent individuals from engaging into physical activities. If you're having one defective gene though, then caution is advice because then you would have a 25% chance of having a child with a really serious problem (thalassemia major). I hope I've helped! If you'd like further information on this, please let me know and I'll be glad to answer. Kind Regards!
