A friend of mine has Situs Inversus ,it's when your born with some or all of your organs on the opposite side of the body then what they're suppose to be on. My question is can Situs Inversus effect a person’s personality and mental state? Can it cause someone to act more irrational or impulsive in comparison to someone without Situs Inversus? If so, what can be done to correct the imbalance?

Most people with situs inversus have no medical symptoms or complications resulting from the condition. Although only 3-5% of people with situs inversus have any type of functional heart defect, this is higher than the rate of heart defects in the general population, which is less than 1%.
Parents who present medical issues in a negative manner may ultimately effect the way the child grows to see himself in later years. Thus creating an emotional environment leading to changes in psychological processes.
