Pseudohermaphroditism
Genital and gonadal sex determinations are discordant in cases of pseudohermaphroditism e.g. an apparently female individual may have testes (a male pseudohermaphrodite).
There are two main causes of pseudohermaphroditism:
- genetic causes e.g. testicular feminisation
- teratogenic e.g. in utero exposure of a female to androgens
