First of all why is this in Justin Bieber? Anyways, yes, it is possible for a girl to have ALD. Originally the disease only affected boys, but because of new treatments these boys are living into puberty. This means that they could possibly impregnate a female carrier of ALD. If they were to have a daughter, then their daughter would have a 50% chance of having ALD.
The most common type of ALD (adrenoleukodystrophy) is X-linked ALD. Than means that the gene for ALD is on the X chromosome. Because boys have only one X chromosome, if it has the ALD gene on it they will have the disease. Girls have two X chromosomes, so, in order to get ALD both of their X chromosomes would have to have an ALD gene. That would mean that both her father and her mother would have to have an ALD gene. Because males with ALD die before they can have children this would not happen. So girls don't get this type of ALD. There are other, more rare types of ALD that affect both boys and girls. So, all in all, fewer girls have ALD
To have scientists collaborate to help find a therapy for ALD
You are requested to write the long form of the 'ALD' and write back the question.
ALD can be the abbreviation for aldosterone or assistive living
Unfortunately, Lorenzo Odone passed away in 2008 at the age of 30 from pneumonia, which was a complication of his adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD). There is currently no cure for ALD, but research is ongoing to find treatments to manage the disease and improve quality of life for those affected.

Boys unlike girls, have only one x gene. They are more likely to get a recessive gene than a girl who has two x genes. Although it happens mostly in men, girls rarely, and I mean rarely get Ald.
The discovery of ald is attributed to PerkinElmer in 2009. Ald stands for Amplified Luminescent Proximity Homogeneous Assay, which is a versatile technology used in life science research for detecting biomolecules in a homogenous format.
Well, ALD is a very rare disease which is VERY dangerous. There is a movie on it called "Lorenzo's Oil". There are treatments but no cure.
