Genomfödda

Genomfödda is a Swedish term that translates to "born through" or "congenital" in English. It is primarily used in a biological context to describe conditions or traits that are present from birth. This can encompass a wide range of characteristics, from physical features and genetic predispositions to diseases and developmental abnormalities.

The term genomfödda is often used in medical and scientific discussions to distinguish conditions that have an innate origin from those acquired later in life. For example, a genomfödd heart defect is one that develops during fetal development, whereas a heart attack is an acquired condition. Similarly, a genomfödd susceptibility to a certain disease implies a genetic component present from birth.

In everyday language, genomfödda can refer to any characteristic that is considered inherent or natural to an individual from their inception. It emphasizes the idea of something being an intrinsic part of an organism's makeup rather than an external influence. The concept is broad and can apply to both desirable and undesirable traits, depending on the context.
