Hermaphrodite Humans - A legitimate gender?

[Prospector]

I'm no expert on females, I'm on the fourth Mrs Gumnut.

You are a legend GG! :

Yes, you are right, it is a little more complicated than that, but the basic issue is that the ovaries produce most of the estrogen and progesterone (but not all) and the testes produce most (but not all) of the testosterone.

But women produce testosterone and men produce progesterone, as everyone produces the 'master' hormone, but this is not enough to define what we think of as 'male' and 'female' characteristics. Women who produce the 'right amount' of testosterone for women have good health, but do not go on to develop deep voices or other male characteristics. And men who produce the 'right amount' of progesterone are also healthy but do not go on to develop female characteristics.

Clear now?

This person should not be allowed to compete.

Excessive hormone level could be treated as doping.

Either way, complicated or not if in doubt, make just one competition level as I said before and no matter who person is, best will win (probably super pure male)
