Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone else here knows about or has been diagnosed with Klinefelter's Syndrome? I'm brand new here and don't know if this was ever discussed on another thread.
I was diagnosed with Klinefelter's Mosaic Syndrome by one of the top doctors in the field at the UCLA Genetics Research Center about a year ago. This means that I have two different sets of DNA in my body. One has the regular XY male sex chromosome set and the other has an XXY intersex chromosome set. In other words, I have an extra female sex chromosome (you go, girl!) running around rogue in my body.
I, and everyone else in my family, knew something was a little different and odd about me growing up as a child. Lack of masculine features, social awkwardness and uncertainty about my gender were clear from about 5 years old on. When I learned of my condition (after discovering I was unable to father a child) it was quite a relief to say the least. It was like my life was blurry before and all of the sudden it came into sharp focus in an "Ohh, that's what's going on" kind of moment.
I know crossdressing is not limited to people with these kinds of conditions and in fact my condition is quite rare with it occurring in about 1/1000 male births. It sure did/does give me peace of mind though.
Thoughts? Thanks for reading.
Cheers,
Elirra
