All human individuals—whether they have an XX, an XY, or an atypical sex chromosome combination—begin development from the same starting point. During early development the gonads of the fetus remain undifferentiated; that is, all fetal genitalia are the same and are phenotypically female. To become a male, the male genitalia need to form/change from the already female genitalia.
I commend you for a smart, scientific, medical, biologically sound post while still managing to weave the term gonads in there. Priceless!! Well done fren!
I'm so, so hopeful next time I go in for my routine physical checkup the doc says something like "your blood pressure looks good, how are your gonads feeling?"
Good info. Came here to say the same thing.
Same information, different words:
