All children are born different, but the appearance of some causes not only emotion, but also surprise. A real surprise for parents and doctors was the birth of Benz. He was born with thick and rather long hair, and absolutely white, as if gray. This unusual case occurred in Hungary and became an occasion for discussion.
Benz was born on time and quite large: his weight was about 5 kilograms. But this is not what alerted the newly minted parents and doctors who delivered the baby. They were struck by the newborn’s hair: it was not only thick, but also snow-white, as if gray.
The condition of the little Benz did not cause concerns, the pregnancy proceeded without complications, and the birth was not difficult. But still the doctors fully examined the boy. Before the results of the diagnosis, many doctors suspected that they were dealing with albinism – a pathological condition in which the body does not produce enough melanin responsible for pigmentation (staining) of the skin and hair. The Hungarian boy was also considered an albino by many subscribers of his parents who posted photos of their son on social networks.
But after the examination, it was found out that Benz does not suffer from albinism. Moreover, he turned out to be perfectly healthy for the happiness of mom and dad. And doctors considered gray hair to be a unique feature of the child, the same as a birthmark or an unusual shade of eyes. Moreover, as the boy grows up, his appearance may well change, and then the curls will darken and become less prominent. Although there is a chance that the baby will remain the same blond.
