Ambiguous Genitalia is an uncommon condition results in genitals that aren’t obviously male or female. When a child is born with ambiguous genitalia, they might have underdeveloped sex organs or have both male and female characteristics. The outward appearance of the genitals won’t necessarily match the child’s genetic sex or internal sex organs. This condition is a sex development disorder, not a disease, that is fairly apparent at birth or soon after.

Ambiguous genitalia cause generally revolve around interrupted development of developing sex organs. For example:
- Insufficient male hormones for a fetus that’s genetically male or the presence of male hormones for a fetus that is genetically female.
- Specific genes that have mutated and influenced sex development.
- Abnormalities in a fetus’ chromosomes, like an absent or extra chromosome.
Symptoms of Ambiguous Genitalia
The biggest sign that a child has ambiguous genitalia is that their external sex organs don’t look like a standard penis or vagina. Other ambiguous genitalia symptoms include:
- Imbalanced hormones.
- Early, late, or absent menstruation.
- Lack of a urethral opening at the end of the penis, or hypospadias.
- Larger than normal clitoris that resembles a tiny penis.
- A urethral opening in an abnormal spot.
- Fused labia or labia that resemble a scrotum.
- A pocket of tissue inside the labia that could be mistaken for testicles and a scrotum.
- A penis that never forms, is tiny, or resembles a large clitoris.
- A urethral opening at the base of the penis, not at the tip.
- A little, open scrotum that could be mistaken for labia.
- Testicles that don’t descend.
Depending on when genital development gets interrupted and what caused it, symptoms can be more or less severe.
Diagnosis
It’s possible to detect this condition before a child has been born, but it won’t be confirmed until a healthcare provider is able to examine the child in person. Depending on the severity of the condition, a quick diagnosis might need test results like:
- Blood tests to assess chromosomes and hormone levels.
- Imaging tests (X-rays, ultrasounds, or MRI scans).
- Laparoscopies or biopsies to check out tissue taken from the sex organs
Risk Factors
It’s possible that a child’s family history affects the development of their genitalia. A large number of sex development disorders happen due to too much use of allopathic drugs especially antibiotics, steroids and supplements and inherited genetic abnormalities.
If a fetus has a family history of any of the following, they’re at a higher risk of atypical genitalia:
- Death during infancy without a cause.
- Difficulty getting pregnant, lack of menstruation, and extra facial hair for females.
- Abnormal genitals.
- Irregular physical maturation during puberty.
- Inherited genetic disorders that mess up the adrenal glands, also called congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
Allopathic treatment for Ambiguous Genitalia 
Ambiguous genitalia treatment starts by determining the cause of the condition. After they determine the cause, your child’s health care provider will help you figure out a treatment plan and a sex assignment. You might need to meet with specialists like:
- A neonatologist
- A geneticist
- An endocrinologist
- A surgeon
- A Urologist
- A psychologist
The team of health care providers will support you as you decide the best way to approach your child’s condition, sexual function, gender identity, and chances for fertility in the long term. You might be looking at hormone replacement therapy or reconstructive surgery. You might need to consider surgery when your child is still an infant if it’s medically important (like the absence of a urethral opening). If you’re concerned about cosmetic appearance, you may decide to wait on surgery until your child can decide for themselves.
Treatment for ambiguous genitalia has many layers. In addition to the factors mentioned above, you should keep your child’s emotional health at the top of your priority list.
