Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Megan's situation is consistent with Androgen-insensitivity syndrome (AIS), a genetic condition in which the body is unable to respond to male sex hormones. This can result in individuals developing female genitalia and being raised as female, despite having male chromosomes. The lack of menstruation is due to the absence of a uterus and ovaries, which should have developed if Megan's body had responded to male hormones.
