An editorial and a case report on Disorders of Sexual Development
(DSD) in the Medical Journal of Australia highlight the need for early

DSD describes conditions in which patients are born with ambiguous
genitalia; DSD were previously described by terms such as 'intersex',
'hermaphroditism' and 'testicular feminisation'.
