Every person has two parts to their genitalia: a phallus (called [[clitoris]] or [[penis]]), and a urinary opening (which in typical males is located on the tip of the penis, and in typical females is located inside the [[vulva]]). In the case of ambiguous genitalia, the phallus is larger than a typical [[clitoris]] and protrudes the way a penis typically does, but there is also a cloacal opening. The [[urethra]] may be located in the cloacal opening or somewhere on the phallus, and the cloacal opening may have or may not have a vaginal channel. | Every person has two parts to their genitalia: a phallus (called [[clitoris]] or [[penis]]), and a urinary opening (which in typical males is located on the tip of the [[penis]], and in typical females is located inside the [[vulva]]).

From the video it is not possible to hypothesize whether the baby presents a male or female [[karyotype]] (what kind of sexual chromosomes the baby has), so it is not possible to hypothesize on first instance what the sex of the baby might be. It could be a male baby with severe [[hypospadias]] or a female baby with [[clitoromegaly]]. | From the video it is not possible to hypothesize whether the baby presents a male or female [[karyotype]] (what kind of sexual chromosomes the baby has), so it is not possible to hypothesize on first instance what the sex of the baby might be.
