Causes


There is no known single cause of Autism.   However, there are many theories.  These theories generally involve a combination of biological, neurological, and environmental factors.  Many researchers believe there is a genetic link that contributes to ASD. 

Others believe there is an environmental role in the development of Autism.  Although disproven by research, many people feel that vaccinations trigger Autism.  Other possible environmental factors include exposure to heavy metals, medications taken by the mother during pregnancy, and air pollution.
