Xeroderma Pigmentosum can really effect someones life. People with XP need to prevent coming into contact with any form of sunlight, so they must stay in doors most of the day. A person with XP must also have frequent check ups with a doctor. These frequent check ups cost a lot of money and take up a good amount of time. XP has many physical symptoms which may cause you to be physically unappealing. XP is a genetic disorder, so there is 50% chance that you may be passing it down to your offsprings.
Xeroderma Pigmentosum is more common in third world countries, so most people that have XP have poor health care, and poor living conditions. XP is rare in places like the United States and Europe.
