UPDATE: Well, what a week. I fought the lab for 3 weeks to get my
karyotype results. They came back 46 XY DSD. The ultrasound indicates a
smaller than normal prostate which means I and a true hermaphrodite. I
have a uterus with suspected streak gonads (or ovaries). Testosterone
levels are below 35 NG/DL while estrogen levels are over 142 ng/mL. I
have 3 surgeons, gynecologist, urologist, and a general ready to do
battle on March 14th. The will be removing the uterus, all gonad tissue,
and my gall bladder. They also suspect a hernia is hiding in there
somewhere. Once this is complete HRT will need to start assuming I can
find an Endocrinologist that have enough balls (no pun intended) to take
on the case.
