Sexual Differentiation and Disorders of Sex Development
Abstract
Sexual differentiation refers to the processes through which a male or female phenotype develops. It typically follows the sex determination as embryonic gonads become testes or ovaries. The sex chromosome complement XY differentiates indifferent (primitive) gonads into testes, whereas the XX differentiates them into ovaries [1,2].
