Full undermasculinization results in a fully developed [[vulva]] with testicles inside the body where the ovaries usually are, which is caused by conditions such as [[complete androgen insensitivity syndrome]]. In [[5α-Reductase 2 deficiency]], individuals are born with normal female genitalia, however, during puberty, male differentiation and [[spermatogenesis]] occurs. Partial genital undermasculinization can occur if the body has a [[partial androgen insensitivity syndrome|partial resistance to androgens]], or if genital development is blocked, undermasculization can also be induced by certain drugs and [[hormone]]s. The overall intensity of undermasculinization can manifest itself in [[hypospadias]].
