🦓 How Rare is EDS?
Hypermobile EDS (hEDS): Most common, ~1 in 3,100–5,000 people
Classical EDS (cEDS): ~1 in 20,000–40,000 people
Vascular EDS (vEDS): ~1 in 100,000–200,000 people
Ultra-rare types: Affect <1 in 1 million; some reported in only a few families
Even though some types are rare, the impact on individuals and families is huge, and raising awareness is key!
