Baby have scrotum and testicles with smlal penile.
Penile is underneath on the scrotum.
If the surgery is done on the 6months baby. Can have a chance to hormone changes to convert as transgender?
Doctor had confirmed the gender as boy without taking usg scrotum scan. Is that mean doctor can able to confirm the gender with the anatomy diagnose?
Please answer my question.. I am very scared on the baby gender

Meet any pediatric surgeon for clarification on surgery. If there is doubtful genitalia take second opinion from any other pediatrician or pediatric endocrinologist.
