Can intersex people get pregnant?

Can intersex people reproduce? Just a chill icebreaker question to ask your casual friends and colleagues.

Thanks for watching y'all! This one came out kinda jazzier, maybe it's the cats

I wished I was told some of us can when I was younger, I didn't do contraceptives as I should have, and voila. I am a parent. Well done, doctors.

Omg you all are so inspiring. I was Born Intersex, my mother was supposed to have fraternal twins boy and girl. Before the two embryos could form into two babies. The chromosomes fused together and made me. When I was born into this world I was born with a vagina an enlarged clitoris, fallopian tubes, a uterus, and testicles. I have menstrual cycles. I'm a man on the outside and a woman on the inside. #krispheonix

The real question people ought to be asking is how is babby formed?

[Tea-fgwe]

You wouldn't BELIEVE amount of people I've had people ask me this. It's like the second most popular creepy intersex FAQ I get from people (right up there next to "are you REALLY an <h-word?>" 🤦🏽

It's a very bizarre (and in my case, insensitive) thing to be asked, like I don't see endosex people asking other endosex people this out of the blue like that.

Idk. I'm just extra salty abt bc for me when this comes up in conversation it's just another reminder of ye olde human rights violation. They sterilized me while they were At It surgically (and they made wrong fucking decision by trying to warp me into a binary girl too; I was a minor at the time so I couldn't comprehend what I was being talked into.) I mean, with the way my body works, I don't think carrying kids would've been a super great move, but it would've been nice to at least have had the opportunity to choose. So no, no getting pomegranate for me lol.

I was always told that I'd never be able to reproduce however I ended up having two children
Thankfully I've always wanted kids otherwise that would have been less than great surprise lol

[christinamichelle]

I was 38 yrs old I learned the truth about me and reproduction. Totally was possible before a surgery that I was not fully informed about & it was a scare tactic to normalize me and after that made I was 100% unable to make another human.

Best path A / path B diagram, really hits home.

I so wanted to be a parent but it wasn’t in the Stars for me .
In my youth way before knowing I am intersexed, I did get my high school sweet heart pregnant but she aborted ( natural not induced ) after 4-5 weeks . She never told me for decades knowing it would have hurt me .

Jellicle cats *can* generally reproduce, but maybe they shouldn't.

[etherealradar]

Lol, love the resurgence of that meme 😂

[Alice-grkb]

first video of yours that i’ve watched and i really like it!

[davidmicheletti]

Im one such person who had one ovotestis and one somewhat underdeveloped testis. We were able to have two children but it took a great deal of time and effort. Cancer happened after the last child was born and chemo and many surgeries took care of any chance of producing more children.

[StellarDiversityTraining]

This is a fantastic video. I love the way you use the term "paths."

[oforth]

i mean, Jellicle Cats clearly reproduce somehow

[lizziebreath]

I'm a midwife and I've been trying to advise a married couple who are my relatives on getting pregnant as a couple where neither has a penis or sperm. He was born intersex but assigned female at birth so I was wondering if that would affect things, I think I need to advise on more tests. All I can say is damn this is complicated, on whether he or she should carry the pregnancy.

[xwrtk]

Saw this story via Facebook. An intersex trans man named Nikolai given has gotten successfully pregnant. XY chromosomes at birth with both male and female genitalia. He had a successful C-Section after accidentally getting pregnant.

[bbybush]

Very good information, however there are 11 documented cases of people having a “spontaneous pregnancy” there has just not been any advanced genetic testing on the babies

[jerriwood]

One thing you did not mention is that an intersexed man with could have the chance to get pregnant through in vetro as well. From what I have read there are 2 cases of this where they both carried the baby to term and had c sections to have the babies.
