?? XY individuals with complete androgen insensitivity absolutely have testosterone, they actually have a shitload of it, because their bodies don’t detect it, endocrine system thinks it’s not making enough and makes more to compensate. That gets converted into estrogen but not like instantly (this also usually means they have a lot of estrogen)
but I mean there’s also probably more than one disorder with XY karyotypes and female phenotypes, idk. You quoted something mentioning no internal male organs but what I am familiar with they still have internal male genitalia (i.e. testes) but these typically get surgically removed when the condition is found out since iirc they pose a long term cancer risk
but I mean also yeah either way it doesn’t have any bearing on whether or not she’s cis or intersex, whatever testosterone test she had
yeah, was trying to improve the response and actively editing but there are multiple XY women conditions and that’s not even including having more Xs or Ys so just deleted that section
she’s 100% cis either way
the slightly higher t levels do not necessarily indicate anything, women without any medical conditions have it
not that it matters, but XX is far more likely

ahhhh
Probably PCOS or something tbh
Or they just timed their cycle wrong. Let’s face it, the majority of top athletes use performance enhancing drugs.
Very true
exactly what my partner just said as soon as i scrolled here!
they have PCOS and it was detected by a blood test that found elevated T levels back when they were a teen
