Also, she is diagnosed with this extremely rare intersex condition (possibly the first of its kind in history!) and yet… she doesn’t know her chromosomes? Doctors forgot to look at her whole fucking chromosomes?
The rarest DSD but incredibly the most common amongst troons
I noticed it, but you have to realize that troons are prolific liars. It's not uncommon for them to lie about having an intersex condition since it makes them seem more special, legitimate, and sympathetic. Also notice that UNCpatient270 only talks about being intersex in r/medicalgore (a "normal" subreddit) but not in the FTM subreddits - she's changing the way she speaks based on her audience.
Because I absolutely love looking at people faking identities for internet points (like pretendians and such), I am doing a deep dive on why she is almost certainly lying:
8 months ago,
she answers someone on r/phallo mentioning a "super easy recovery from hysto"
His
first mention of being intersex is 5 months ago, responding to a removed comment (
retrieved here) implying his "penis" wasnt real:
Lying about being intersex is the oldest trick in the book for a troon (original troon Lili Elbe was already doing it in her book), specially as a means of appearing more "legit" as the sex they want to be.
In the interest of being fair, the only other mention of "intersex" in any r/phallo post is from a pic of his medical costs:
Which brings us to the r/medicalgore thread 2 days ago, where he titles it an "
intersex surgery to repair a stricture", no mention it's a phallo repair. Now the inconsistencies start when people ask for clarification on the surgery/his intersex condition:
(First he just says he was born with ambiguous genitalia)
Someone ask for clarification and we get this:
Now, wait a minute... 8 months ago he says his "histo" went fine, but he never had an uterus?
We get questions about the procedure and his intersex situation, notice he makes sure to never mention phallo and trans terms ('I'm also including comments
from his second post):

Now here he finally answers "his flavor of intersex":

So,
21-hydroxylase deficiency,
is it?
21-hydroxylase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency in one of the enzymes required for the synthesis of cortisol in the adrenal glands. 21-Hydroxylase deficiency is the most common cause of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH).
The guidelines for diagnosing mention an interesting tidbit also ("In an infant with ambiguous genitalia, do karyotype to establish the chromosomal sex") but more importantly, let's learn a bit about
CAH, shall we?
Infant females generally come to medical attention at birth because the disorder causes affected females to exhibit recognizable genital anomalies resulting from high androgen levels while in the womb, and therefore receive prompt treatment for adrenal crisis and salt-wasting. The excess androgen exposure coming from the fetus’ adrenals during the period of gestation when the external genitalia are formed causes these external genital anomalies in females. The clitoris is usually enlarged, and may even look like a small penis, and the labial folds may be joined to resemble the scrotum. Sometimes, if the extent of ambiguity is great, the female baby may be misidentified as a male. These anomalies are only external. The female reproductive internal organs are not affected and are intact. The child has a uterus and ovaries. Some parents may choose reconstructive genital/urological surgery for their daughters.
Infant males with CAH appear normal at birth. Newborn males show no external signs of the disorder and are sent home unrecognized. These babies often present with vomiting or life-threatening shock within the first few weeks of birth where there is no newborn screening.
Wait,
maybe trying another source?
Ambiguous genitalia in female newborns babies (genitalia that is not typical female nor male appearing), with normal internal feminine reproductive organs (ovaries, uterus, and fallopian tubes). Male babies usually have normal genitalia but may have small testes and an enlarged penis.
How interesting! Let's go back to the information gathered by our troon's responses:
I had a small penis/large clitoris, scrotum (that was surgically created into labia during a surgery in infancy) I also had a vagina, but no cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, or ovaries.
Undeveloped [testes] and removed during first few months of life.
I don't know my chromosomes, but my flavor of intersex is 21-hydroxylase deficiency
Now, even if we disconsider his earlier "hysto" comment, that doesn't seem to track with the literature. My guess is he meant to say he had PAIS or something else. (He is not claiming ovotestis, he is claiming he only had underdeveloped testes). I am particularly intrigued by having both a "scrotum that was surgically created into labia" (with no testes since those were undescended) and a vaginal canal.
