Through a historical evolution of the symptoms, starting with the first observations, this paper attempts to give a thorough understanding of the symptoms associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The social difficulties, communication problems, and repetitive activities associated with ASD were often thought to be superficial symptoms. Difficulties in reading social cues and building connections with others were noted as critical social challenges. Delays in speech development and nonliteral language deficits were markers of communication problems. Repetitive activities have been shown to be more indicative of ASD symptoms than core traits. The intricacy of these symptoms and their influence on individuals identified as having ASD have come to light as this field's understanding has grown. The present, improved understanding of the condition, which permits the administration of targeted drugs and more individualized therapy, is based on this prior information.

The present research on the symptoms of ASD is examined in this paper, which also highlights the shift from previous viewpoints to a more inclusive and thorough technique. The disorder known as a variety of symptoms characterizes ASD. Present-day viewpoints recognise that social challenges, communication breakdowns, and repetitive habits are unique to every person diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Social and communication challenges have a significant impact on a person's ability to understand nonverbal cues, maintain social connections, and express emotions clearly. Repetitive actions are becoming identified as self-regulation methods, even though genuine interests are typically seen as desirable assets. Current research suggests that more inclusion and assistance for individuals with ASD may be possible in the future due to the development of specialist treatments and support networks.

It may be possible to increase the current knowledge of ASD by looking at its neurological and genetic foundations. This might result in the creation of more focused therapeutic approaches. It is suggested that a focused approach that emphasizes precision medicine and early intervention would improve outcomes for people with ASD and customize therapy to fit each patient's unique profile. Advancements in diagnostic tools that use cutting-edge technologies, such as genetic analysis and neuroimaging, will enable a more accurate and rapid diagnosis. Specialized treatment techniques and support networks should be created in the future to cater to the distinctive needs and skills of people with autism spectrum disorder. The above developments have the potential to significantly improve the quality of life for people with ASD by providing personalized, effective, and accurate therapies that are tailored to their specific needs and abilities.
