sounds like B, enlarged clitoris from adrenal hyperplasia converting to 17 ketosteroids (androstenedione). There's not testes so the baby is a girl. If it was androgen insenstivity-it would be a genotypic male without internal or external genitalia (vagina ends in blind pounch) and there would still be a testes. As long as you have a Y chromosome (testes differentiating factor), you have a testes, if you do not then you know that shes a girl. So 21-OH deficiency is the only answer. As an aside she would also have hypotension because of lack of mineralocorticoid.
