@leighms i fixed the typo you mentioned. Re doctors, I was not physically ambiguous at birth, but my puberty was extremely late and relatively mild in its effects.
I've always been fairly androgynous, but the HRT kinda sealed the deal on that.
@leighms I actually have a friend that ended up confiding in me that they'd been born with ambiguous anatomy, after attending a talk I gave about nonbinary medical transition options.
@ryanc
There are more people born with ambiguous gender than many people realise. Most aren't very open about it because of general ignorance and increasing prejudice.
I gave a talk at a conference in Dublin in the late 80s and touched on this earlier work in the Q and A.
Later a rather prominent scientist confided to me that they had been born as gender ambiguous. As part of their research they had managed to get hold of a very high resolution ultrasound scanner and tried to 'take a peek' to see if they could work out if they had both organs. Unfortunately it is very difficult to get good images with ultrasound and would really need an experienced operator, but they didn't want anyone else involved. This was 1980s Ireland which was very intolerant.
