Prostate examination in a "young woman "?? Really ??


  #4

wink

!!!hey !!! thought:??? do XY female phenotype have prostate?


  #5

You mean rest of external genitalia is female and only male prostate is present. Which is the anatomical location of this "unique" prostate ?


  #6

quick glance in wikipedia(uhhh)... no androgen -> parts of prostate are not formed ... what parts remain? will that lead to possible prostate cancer?

cant find in any books that prostate is only partial due to androgen, so probably no prostate is formed.
