=== Penile Agenesis ===
'''Penile Agenesis''' or '''Penile Aplasia''' is a term for when someone who is expected to develop a penis has no genitalia. This is estimated to occur in between 20 and 30 million [[AMAB]] or otherwise [[CTM]] births. One with this variation almost always needs to have surgical intervention, as they usually have no urinary outlet.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220120174749/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penile_agenesis_and_testicular_agenesis}}</ref>
'''Micropenis''', '''Microphallus,''' or '''Penile Hypoplasia''' is a term for when one has an unusually small penis, usually due to another intersex trait, however this is not always the case. This effects about 0.6% AMAB or otherwise CTM individuals. This may be considered a subset of [[Ambiguous Genitalia|ambiguous genitalia]] in some cases, and may overlap with [[clitoromegaly]]. It typically causes little issue, as sexual activity with the penis is still possible, even if its smaller than expected.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220124202904/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropenis}}</ref>▼

'''Cryptorchidism''' is a term for when one is born with a testicle/testicles that are undescended (within the body, rather
than in a scrotum.) There is currently no findable estimate of this occurrence in AMAB or otherwise CTM births. One with this variation likely also has [[hypospadias]].<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220201040227/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptorchidism}}</ref>
=== Monorchidism
'''Monorchidism''' or '''Monorchism''' is a term for when one has a single testicle. They are typically fertile, as their single testicle is usually functioning.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220120174751/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monorchism}}</ref>
=== Congenital Anorchia
'''Congenital Anorchia''' or '''Testicular Agenesis''' is a term for when one is born with a penis and scrotum that has no testicles.<ref>https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001185.htm#:~:text=In%20some%20cases%2C%20the%20testes%20may%20disappear%20between%2012%20and,the%20%22vanishing%20testes%20syndrome.%22</ref> [[AMAB Hypogonadism|AMAB hypogonadism]] occurs for those with this variation.<ref>https://www.theturekclinic.com/anorchia/</ref> This is also considered a form of [[Gonadal Agenesis|gonadal agenesis]].
===
'''Microorchidism''' is a term for when one has unusually small testicles. One with this variation typically has a lack of masculine hormones released due to the decreased size and functionality, which often leads one to have more feminized traits.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220127043640/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microorchidism}}</ref>

'''Aphallia''' is a term for someone who is born without a phallis. This includes penile agenesis and clitoral aplasia. It is a rare variation with very little reports, however this lack of reports is likely due [[Sexism|to fear of stigmatization]].<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220120174748/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphallia}}</ref>

'''Urethral Agenesis''' is a term for someone who is born without a urethra. This can effect both CTM and CTF individuals and may be a partnered variations with other agenital forms.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220127050046/https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-43310-3_23}}</ref><ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220130123705/https://www.hindawi.com/journals/au/2020/2782783/}}</ref>
Line 81 ⟶ 77:
Agenital is sometimes used interchangeably with [[angenital]], which is an [[altersex]] identity in which one desires to be without genitals. It is also occasionally used to refer to [[Asexual|asexuals]] who are repulsed by genitalia but are not necessarily not devoid of sexual feelings or repulsed by other sexual acts that do not primarily involve genitals.
