Title: Unsure of what to make of this.
Post by: Rayne on September 15, 2014, 12:25:54 AM
I was doing some research on this subject. I found the north american intersex group, brain fart -.-, forgot the last word. what got me confused was that they list microphallus/micropenis and hypospadius on their possibly intersex list of conditions. the thing is, i had both when I was born. That said, my hypospadius was not severe, the hole was just not in the right space and a bit oddly shaped. I am not sure what to make of this info, nor is my only supporting family member, my granny, and though it likely will not qualify, we both thought that with 2 of my conditions on said list, not just one, it was worth looking into. Note, i am not asking for medical advice, just opinions and thoughts.

Just a few questions.
1.  Are you on hrt?
2. If so, did you have blood work done before hrt?
3. And if so, what was your T and E levels?

It sounds reasonable that you could be intersex. One way to find out I guess, and that is ask for help from a doctor.

Well before i came to recognize my gender issues they were giving me testosterone. I have panhypopituitarism and i tack enough of it to go into puberty. However neither hormone level is really enough to cause puberty without medical aid. Due to all of this my only real changes are a small amount of breast tissue or buds(?) and pubic hair. I look about 14ish to most people. All this is from my hypogonadism which stems from the panhypopituitarism. I am not sure of the numbers, so i went with other information. I plan to mention all this to a doc, as soon as i get my medicaid back.
