De la Chapelle syndrome
English
XX male syndrome
English
De la Chapelle syndrome causes people with XX chromosomes to be born with a penis and testes. This usually happens because a particular gene typically seen on Y chromosomes (known as the SRY gene) ends up on one of their X chromosomes and causes their genitals and internal reproductive organs to develop as they typically would in someone with XY chromosomes. People with de la Chapelle might have testes that are smaller than typical or that are undescended, and they are often infertile. In adolescence, they may experience breast growth, and they might not develop the characteristics that are usually associated with a typical testosterone puberty.
