Hormonal
Estrogen, Testosterone, and Mullerian Inhibiting Substance
Estrogen
Genital
Mullerian ducts degenerate (MIS). The Wolffian ducts differentiate into epididymis, vas deferens, and ejaculatory duct.
Wolffian ducts degenerate (automatically). The Mullerian ducts differentiate into fallopian tubes, uterus, and upper vagina
12-20 weeks
Penis and descended testes
Outer vagina and clitoris
Glans and Genital Tubercle become
Glans (head of) penis
Clitoris
Urethral Fold becomes
Shaft of the penis
Labia minora
Urogenital Slit becomes
Raphe (seam at base of penis)
Vaginal orifice
Labioscrotal Swelling becomes
Scrotum
Labia majora

8. Descriptions (from medical records) Of Clitorides That Are “Too Big”
“ disfiguring and embarrassing phallic structure”
“ anatomic derangements”
“Clitoral overgrowth”
“Female babies born with an ungainly masculine enlargement of the clitoris :
“The offending shaft of the clitoris “
“The size of the glans is challenging to a feminine cosmetic result.”
