According to local media such as Tribune News, a 15-year-old girl living in Bogor, Java Island, Indonesia, turned out to be a male. Until she became a third grader in middle school, A grew up as a daughter in the family, and until recently, she lived wearing a skirt.
The parents said A was a daughter at the hospital when she was born, and they thought it was because they could not see a male genitalia.
However, when A grew up, his parents were worried because he did not get his period, which a normal woman should do.
Parents and acquaintances were puzzled as their voices and walking skills seemed like any other boy when playing soccer or sports with friends.
Meanwhile, the mother, who recently checked her daughter's physical condition while taking a bath, was surprised. It was because a male genitalia was observed even though it was small.
Upon examination at a local hospital, the doctor confirmed that A was biologically male because he had testicles.
Hormone and chromosome tests from other hospitals also showed that they were male.
After the final examination, the medical staff explained that A's parents should undergo testicular descent and urinary tract repair.
Testicular descent is a surgical method that holds the testicle in place when it is in an abnormal position in the torso rather than in the scrotum.
The parents hope that the child will complete the operation safely and become a `real man.'
