Most individuals with androgen insensitivity syndrome have female gender identity in spite of the fact that they have an XY genotype.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is a condition where an individual has XY chromosomes but is born with female genitalia and experiences female gender identity. This is because their body is unable to respond to androgens, which are typically responsible for male development. As a result, their body develops along the female pathway, including the development of breasts and a female-pattern distribution of body fat. However, they do not have a uterus or ovaries, and are infertile.
