Guevodoces


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guevodoces is a genetic condition that delays male sexual development until puberty. The affected individual is usually an XY male, but he appears female from birth as a result of delayed testosterone production.At puberty, however, his testes descend and his penis finally develops.Because of the absence of 5-alpha reductase that is needed to convert testosterone to DHT at birth, genetalia looks female when an individual is born.
