Patients with the classical and hypermobility forms of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome have a normal life expectancy. About 80% of patients with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome will experience a major health event by age 40 and the life expectancy is shortened, with an average age of death of 48 years.EDS prognosis by disease type
However, symptoms may become more severe as patients age and joints that have been dislocated multiple times become painful. Everyone's bones become weaker with age. In EDS patients with hypermobile joints, weakening bones can make the symptoms of the disease more severe as it progresses.The hypermobile and classical forms are most common; the hypermobile type may affect as many as 1 in 5,000 to 20,000 people, while the classical type probably occurs in 1 in 20,000 to 40,000 people.
Is hypermobility syndrome a disability : Whether or not hypermobility is considered a disability depends on the severity of the symptoms. Many people with hypermobility syndrome only have mild symptoms, and only in a few joints. For others, their life can be seriously affected by the syndrome. It can impede them from carrying out basic daily living tasks.
Do people with hypermobility live longer
Patients with classical and hypermobility types of EDS may have a longer lifespan. Patients with these forms of EDS live healthy but somewhat restricted lives.
Does hypermobility affect lifespan : Although hEDS doesn't affect life expectancy, researchers ultimately want to learn how to correct or eliminate the disease's origins.
Due to the collagen in the skin being extra stretchy, many EDS patients experience a lack of wrinkles as they age. This collagen may help EDS patients look younger and can also cause skin to feel extremely soft. Individuals who suffer from Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome are young-looking, with velvety skin, a small face, and a thin nose, making them look younger as if they have never aged. This is especially seen in the case of the vascular type/ vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

This is especially seen in the case of the vascular type/ vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.The connective tissues of hypermobile people are weaker compared with non-hypermobile individuals and therefore their muscle needs to be twice as strong to stabilise their joints and to be able to function normally, otherwise they would use twice as much energy on simple tasks, which will lead to fatigue and pain.For some people the extra flexibility may be a benefit. For example ballet dancers or gymnasts. But, some people with joint hypermobility can have symptoms like: pain and stiffness in the joints and muscles.

Do hypermobile people have less collagen : Someone who has HSD or hEDS often has faulty or weak collagen. Think of collagen as the glue that holds your entire body together, when this glue is faulty this can cause the ligaments to be weak or stretched so they don't hold your joints as well. Another reason you may be hypermobile is the shape of your bones.
