  2. What is Anterograde Amnesia? Anterograde amnesia refers to a decreased ability to store new information. This could affect your daily activities. It might also interfere with work and social activities because you may have challenges creating new memories. Anterograde amnesia is a part of amnesia. In such cases, amnesia (memory loss) has already happened. It is caused by damage to memory-making parts of your brain. In some cases, amnesia might be temporary, but in other cases, it might be permanent. Some types of therapies could help you cope with this type of memory loss. Proactive, anterograde, and retrograde amnesia Anterograde amnesia is one of the two main features of amnesia. People with this feature have trouble making new memories based on experiences and information they come across. The other feature is known as retrograde amnesia. This refers to the inability to recall events and people from your past. It could also cause you to forget well-established daily information, like what time you go to work.

  3. Symptoms of Anterograde Amnesia Symptoms of anterograde amnesia mainly affect short-term memory processing. This could cause confusion and frustration. For example, someone with this form of amnesia may forget: Someone they have recently met A new phone number A recent meal The names of famous people Newly-made changes to a routine, like a school or job changes Such symptoms differ from those of retrograde amnesia, which might include forgetting information you already knew before the amnesia. For example, you may forget to read a book you have read before. Also, the symptoms of anterograde amnesia occur after you have already started experiencing memory loss.

  4. Causes of Anterograde Amnesia In general, amnesia is caused by damage to your brain. This affects memory-making parts of your brain, like the thalamus. Anterograde amnesia tends to happen after you start experiencing some symptoms of the disease, like short-term memory loss. It is caused by certain damages to your brain that lead to differences in the way you retain new information. An MRI test or a CT scan could help your doctor diagnose the physical causes of anterograde amnesia. These could help them look for changes or damage to the brain.
