Line 1:
'''Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH)''' is an [[intersex]] variation that effects 1 in every 10,000 to 18,000 people. Those with this variation have adrenal glands (glands above the kidneys that produce horomones such as cortisol and aldosterone) that do not properly function in adrenal horomone production. Because of this, hormone production is affected in both [[CTM]] and [[CTF]] individuals alike.
Line 30 ⟶ 29:
This variation can also be caused by defects in the ''CYP17A1'' gene or defects in the gene that encodes the enzyme steroid ''11β-hydroxylase''.
