Androgen insensitivity syndrome is an inherited condition that affects sexual development before birth and during puberty. People with this condition are genetically male, with one X and one Y chromosome. Because their bodies are unable to respond to certain hormones (called androgens), they may have mostly female sexual characteristics or signs of both male and female sexual development. Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome occurs when the body cannot use androgens at all. Partial or mild androgen insensitivity syndrome results when tissues are partially sensitive to the effects of androgens.
