Early genital surgery model
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: Patient care model developed by John Money, a New Zealand psychologist who theorized that gender was completely dependent on "nurture." This model advocates for performing genital surgery on intersex infants and raising them as girls. Money's theories have resulted in many surgically misgendered children who have had to deal with life-long gender dysphoria, depression, sexual dysfunction, bowel and urinary incontinence, and nerve pain. A patient-centered model, in which the intersex child is allowed to grow up and make their own choices regarding their gender and surgical option, is now preferred.

Hopkins model
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: A patient care model that gained popular usage in the 1950s. In this model, parents are used to quickly decide on a gender assignment for their intersex baby, under the assumption that the child would identify with whichever gender their parents raised them as. If a child later deviated from the assigned gender, parents were encouraged to verbally and physically "correct" the child and enforce gender norms. In practice, this resulted in life-altering, unnecessary genital surgeries, irreversible hormone treatments, and dishonesty on the parent's part. A patient-centered model, in which the intersex child is allowed to grow up and make their own choices regarding their gender and surgical option, is now preferred.

Mild androgen insensitivity syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with mild androgen insensitivity syndrome (MAIS) respond to testosterone at a somewhat reduced level compared to typical levels, which means that they will usually be born with a penis (which may or may not be smaller than typical) and will later develop secondary sex characteristics associated with a typical testosterone puberty. Because their bodies convert a small amount of their naturally produced androgens into estrogen, they may have visible variations in features, such as the amount of facial hair, body hair, or muscle tone they develop. They may also experience some breast development during puberty.

Mixed gonadal dysgenesis
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with mixed gonadal dysgenesis are born with a mosaic (usually 45X/46XY) chromosome pattern and may develop some gonadal streak tissue and testicular tissue. They may be born with a vulva or penis, or with visible genital variations. They usually have a partially or completely developed uterus, and they may have combinations of internal reproductive structures such as a fallopian tube and a vas deferens on opposite sides of the body. In adolescence, people with mixed gonadal dysgenesis may develop some secondary sex characteristics associated with a typical testosterone puberty, depending on the amount of hormone-producing testicular tissue they have.

comment: People with XX chromosomes can have a broad range of variations in how their Müllerian ducts (which typically form the uterus, fallopian tubes, cervix, and upper portion of the vagina) develop. They might have a variation that causes their uterus to develop with a different shape than typical, or to be doubled. Others may have vaginal variations such as a “hemivagina” (where one side of the vagina is obstructed, which can sometimes block menstrual blood from exiting), or a band of tissue dividing the vaginal canal (known as a vaginal septum). Müllerian duct variations usually don’t cause someone to have any variations in their ovaries or hormone production.

comment: A primarily U.S. American and Canadian political movement that advocates replacing policing with other systems of public safety. Police abolitionists believe that policing, as a system, is inherently flawed and cannot be reformed—a view that rejects the ideology of police reformists. While reformists seek to address the ways in which policing occurs, abolitionists seek to transform policing altogether through a process of disbanding, disempowering, and disarming the police. Abolitionists argue that the institution of policing is deeply rooted in a history of white supremacy and settler colonialism and that it is inseparable from a pre-existing racial capitalist order, and thus believe a reformist approach to policing will always fail.

17-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3 deficiency
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with 17-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3 deficiency, abbreviated as "17-beta," have XY chromosomes and testes, but their bodies do not have one of the enzymes needed to synthesize testosterone. Most people with 17-beta are born with a vulva and vagina, and their testes are most often undescended. Some people with 17-beta will be born with genitals that do not clearly resemble a typical penis or a typical vulva. Some will have a penis that may be smaller than typical (known as a micropenis), and the urethra may open on the underside of the penis rather than at the tip (known as hypospadias). In adolescence, people with 17-beta will often develop some secondary sex characteristics associated with a typical testosterone puberty.

Ambiguous genitalia
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: A term used to describe a birth variation in which the outer genitals do not have the typical appearance of those associated with either boys or girls. This is often the first sign many doctors and parents see that indicate their child has an intersex variation. Ambiguous genitalia can be caused by a variety of variations and rarely require immediate surgical intervention as long as the child is able to excrete and urinate without complications. Many intersex people find this term stigmatizing, so it should not be used unless the individual uses it to describe themselves.

Anorchia
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: A person with anorchia has 46 XY chromosomes and is born without testes. As a result, they do not produce typical levels of testosterone. Someone with anorchia will usually have a typical-appearing penis and scrotum because these organs are already formed by the stage of fetal development when the testes disappear.

Aromatase deficiency
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with aromatase deficiency do not have the enzyme responsible for converting androgens into estrogen. At birth, someone with aromatase deficiency and XX chromosomes may have a larger-than-typical clitoris and partially or completely fused labia (resembling the appearance of a scrotum). At puberty, they may not develop breasts, may not begin menstruating, and may develop some secondary sex characteristics associated with a typical testosterone puberty. They may also develop multiple cysts on their ovaries. People with XY chromosomes can also have aromatase deficiency, but they do not typically experience variations in their sex characteristics, though they may grow taller than is typical because estrogen is usually responsible for closing the bone growth plates.

Aromatase excess syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with aromatase excess have increased production of aromatase, which converts androgens (like testosterone) into estrogen. People with XY chromosomes and aromatase excess syndrome will therefore have more active estrogen in their bodies than is typical. As a result, they will often stop growing at a shorter height and/or develop breasts in adolescence along with features associated with a typical testosterone puberty. People with XX chromosomes can also have aromatase excess, but it doesn't usually cause their sex characteristics to vary from what is considered typical for those assigned female at birth, though they may also experience breast enlargement and short stature, along with menstrual irregularities.

Bladder exstrophy
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with bladder exstrophy are born with their urinary bladder exposed (through an open abdominal wall) or outside of the body. They may also have an open pelvis (resulting from the pubic bones not joining together), which causes genital differences. People with bladder exstrophy and XY chromosomes often have a shorter-than-typical penis with epispadias (meaning the urethra opens on the top surface of the penis instead of at the tip) and undescended testes. People with XX chromosomes and bladder exstrophy often have a urethra that is placed higher than usual, widely spaced labia (due to the wide spacing of their pubic bones), and a clitoris formed in two halves with a split in the middle.

Chimerism
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: Term used to describe the variation in which a person is born with two or more different sets of DNA. This can occur when multiple zygotes (such as fraternal twins) combine and develop into one fetus. Sex-chromosome discordant chimerism occurs when at least one embryo with XX chromosomes fuses with at least one embryo with XY chromosomes. A person who develops this way would have sets of both XX and XY chromosomes, or a chromosome pattern of 46XX/46XY, and could have a wide variety of different possible sex characteristics. Many people with chimerism and XX/XY chromosomes have both ovarian and testicular tissue, while others have only testes or only ovaries, and still others have gonadal dysgenesis. Some have noticeable genital differences and others do not.

Cloacal exstrophy
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28

comment: People born with cloacal exstrophy are born with an open abdominal wall exposing their colon, bladder, and sometimes other abdominal organs. Their organs may also be positioned outside of the body at birth. The bladder is often split into two halves, and the colon and bladder may be connected. The anal opening may be blocked or not have been formed. The pubic bones do not join together, resulting in an open pelvis with noticeable genital differences. People with XY chromosomes and cloacal exstrophy may have a smaller-than-typical penis that is flat or split into two halves with an epispadic urethra (opening on the top of the penis rather than at the tip) and undescended testes. Someone with XX chromosomes and cloacal exstrophy usually has a clitoris that is split into two halves, and they may have two vaginal openings.

Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) have no response to androgens and are born with a vulva and clitoris, as well as a shorter-than-typical vagina and undescended testes. In adolescence, they will develop breasts and other features associated with a typical estrogen puberty due to the body’s natural conversion of testosterone to estrogen. However, people with CAIS do not menstruate because they do not have a uterus or ovaries.

De la Chapelle syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: De la Chapelle syndrome causes people with XX chromosomes to be born with a penis and testes. This usually happens because a particular gene typically seen on Y chromosomes (known as the SRY gene) ends up on one of their X chromosomes and causes their genitals and internal reproductive organs to develop as they typically would in someone with XY chromosomes. People with de la Chapelle might have testes that are smaller than typical or that are undescended, and they are often infertile. In adolescence, they may experience breast growth, and they might not develop the characteristics that are usually associated with a typical testosterone puberty.

Epispadias
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with epispadias are born with a urinary opening located on the upper surface of their penis rather than at the tip (similar to the more common variation hypospadias). People with vulvas can also be born with epispadias, in which case the urethral opening is wider and located higher than typical. The clitoris may also be split into two halves. Epispadias is usually present whenever bladder exstrophy or cloacal exstrophy develop, but epispadias can also occur by itself.

Estrogen insensitivity syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with estrogen insensitivity syndrome (EIS) have a genetic variation in which their bodies do not respond to estrogen. People with XX chromosomes and EIS are usually born with a vulva and vagina, may have a small uterus and enlarged ovaries that later develop multiple cysts, and may produce very high levels of estrogen that their bodies do not recognize. In adolescence, they will most likely not experience the changes associated with a typical estrogen puberty such as breast development or menstruation. They may instead develop pubic hair and acne due to the influence of androgens. People with XY chromosomes can also be born with EIS, and they may or may not experience variations in their other hormone production, testicular development, and development of secondary sex characteristics as a result.

comment: People with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) insensitivity have a genetic variation where their bodies do not respond to FSH. People with XX chromosomes and FSH insensitivity will usually be born with a vulva, vagina, and ovaries. Their ovaries may produce lower amounts of estrogen than is considered typical, and they may not produce fertile follicles (eggs). In adolescence, they may not develop secondary sex characteristics associated with a typical estrogen puberty and may not menstruate. People with XY chromosomes and FSH insensitivity may develop smaller-than-typical testes, may produce fewer sperm than usual, and may not be fertile.

Hyperandrogenism
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with hyperandrogenism have higher-than-typical levels of testosterone and/or other androgens. In people with XX chromosomes, hyperandrogenism can result in the development of secondary sex characteristics that are associated with the influence of testosterone (such as facial and body hair) to varying degrees. Hyperandrogenism may or may not be the result of an underlying intersex variation, but it is common in several variations (including CAH and PCOS). People with hyperandrogenism who aren’t intersex will nonetheless often have many experiences in common with intersex people, such as encountering exclusion and discrimination in sex-segregated contexts like sports.

Hypogonadism
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with hypogonadism produce lower-than-typical levels of hormones like testosterone and estrogen, or none at all. This can affect how a person’s secondary sex characteristics develop as well as their fertility. Hypogonadism can be a result of a difference in how someone’s brain signals for their gonads to produce (or not produce) hormones, or it can be a feature of their gonads directly. Hypogonadism is not always caused by an intersex variation, but can be related to Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and several other variations.

type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with isolated 17,20-lyase deficiency (ILD) have one of several specific variations in their genes that cause their bodies to make lower-than-typical amounts of testosterone. They may be born with genitals that do not appear quite like a typical penis, and their testes may be descended or undescended. In adolescence, they may not experience all of the changes related to a typical testosterone puberty because their variation impacts their hormone production.

comment: Kallmann syndrome can occur in people with XX or XY chromosomes and is a form of hypogonadism. People with Kallmann syndrome and XY chromosomes are often born with a smaller-than-typical penis and undescended testes. In adolescence, most people with Kallmann syndrome will either start puberty later than usual or not experience typical pubertal changes (such as developing facial hair and a deeper voice for people with XY chromosomes or developing breasts and starting to menstruate for people with XX chromosomes) unless they receive hormone therapy. Kallmann syndrome also affects someone’s sense of smell.

type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with XY chromosomes and luteinizing hormone insensitivity develop the variation Leydig cell hypoplasiae. Because people with XX chromosomes do not typically produce Leydig cells to begin with, someone with XX chromosomes who has a genetic insensitivity to luteinizing hormone will not be affected in the same way. A person with XX chromosomes whose body does not respond to luteinizing hormone will not usually have any noticeable differences at birth, but their ovaries may not produce fertile follicles (eggs), and they may not menstruate.

comment: People with Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) have XY chromosomes, male-typical reproductive organs and external genitalia, and some component(s) of a female-typical reproductive tract, such as a uterus, fallopian tubes, and/or upper vaginal canal. PMDS occurs when the Müllerian ducts—internal structures that ordinarily break down in an XY fetus—remain and develop as they would in an XX fetus. PMDS is ordinarily not diagnosed at birth, and individuals with this variation often have a male gender identity.

Polycystic ovary syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with this variation have XX chromosomes and are generally born with a vulva and vagina, a uterus, and ovaries. Later in life, their ovaries often produce higher-than-typical levels of androgens like testosterone. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can also result in the development of characteristics such as facial and body hair, and it can interfere with the process of ovulation. This in turn can cause irregular periods or no periods, and people with PCOS may struggle to become pregnant. Some people with PCOS have small cysts (fluid-filled sacs) on their ovaries, but some do not. Signs of PCOS generally will not show up until a person starts menstruating, or later in life.

comment: People with Trisomy X are born with 47XXX chromosomes rather than the typical 46XX. If they receive the additional X chromosome from their parent's original sperm or egg cell, they will have 47XXX chromosomes in all their cells. If the additional chromosome appears during the embryo's development process, however, only some cells will have 47XXX chromosomes and the person will be born with a mosaic chromosome pattern. Most people with 47XXX chromosomes do not develop any variations in their other sex characteristics but some may have ovaries that stop producing hormones at an earlier-than-typical age and some may not menstruate.

issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with Type 1 Leydig cell hypoplasia (LCH) produce almost no testosterone and will usually be born with a vulva and vagina and undescended testes. They are usually assigned female at birth, often without their variation being recognized until adolescence, at which point they generally will not develop any secondary sex characteristics or experience other changes typically associated with puberty.

modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with Type 2 Leydig cell hypoplasia (LCH) have some response to luteinizing hormone and produce lower-than-typical amounts of testosterone, but more than people with Type 1 LCH. At birth, their testes may be descended or undescended, and they may have a smaller-than-typical penis, often with other noticeable differences such as hypospadias. In adolescence, they will often develop some characteristics associated with a typical testosterone puberty.

Vaginal atresia
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28

XXYY syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with XXYY syndrome are born with an extra copy of both an X and Y chromosome, resulting in an 48XXYY chromosome pattern instead of the typical 46XY. People with XXYY chromosomes may have undescended testes and produce lower-than-typical amounts of testosterone, which can cause them to start puberty at a later age than typical and develop less pronounced secondary sex characteristics like muscle tone and facial hair. They may also experience breast growth. People with XXYY syndrome often have other physical features that are similar to those developed by people with Klinefelter syndrome (47XXY).

Leydig cell hypoplasia
type: Concept
issued: 2023-06-28
modified: 2023-06-28
comment: People with Leydig cell hypoplasia (LCH) have XY chromosomes and a genetic insensitivity to luteinizing hormone. LCH can be either complete (known as LCH Type 1) or partial (known as LCH Type 2). Luteinizing hormone is typically responsible for the development of Leydig cells in the testicles and for signaling for those cells to produce androgens like testosterone. Someone with LCH will develop few or no Leydig cells and therefore will produce less testosterone than is typical.

comment: Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome occurs when a person's Müllerian ducts, which typically become the uterus and upper portion of the vagina during fetal development, do not develop in the typical way. People with MRKH have XX chromosomes and are usually born with a vulva and either a vagina that is shorter than typical or no vagina. They usually do not have a cervix and may have a partial uterus (uterine remnant) or no uterus. They often do not mensturate but may experience cyclic pain if they have a uterine remnant with endometrial lining, and they can develop menstruation-related conditions like endometriosis.
