'''17-AH Deficiency''' or '''17-alpha-hydroxylase deficiency''' is an [[intersex]] condition in which the adrenal glands- the glands that regulate the production of certain horomones- do not properly function. Because of this, the reproductive system does not grow very strongly. This condition is estimates to effect 1 in a million individuals at birth.▼

Those with XX chromosomes (individuals who would typically be [[AFAB]]) have abnormally small ovaries and an abnormally small uterus. Because of this, they do not grow many secondary sex traits, such as breasts, pubic hair, or menstruation. Because of this, they are unable to concieve a child, and thus are infertile. ▼

Those with XY chromosomes (individuals who would typically be [[AMAB]]) usually have [[Ambiguous Genitalia|ambiguous genitals]] or a vagina, and because of this, they are often mistaken as female. Those that do have a penis often have a [[Agenital|micropenis, cryptorchidism,]] and/or [[hypospadias]]. They are also infertile.▼

This condition is inherited in an ''autosomal recessive pattern,'' which means both copies of the gene in each cell have mutations. This means the parents each have one cell with this condition, and both the cells combined is what effected the child when being concieved.▼
Most with this variation experience high blood pressure and hypokalemia.

Anderson from [[User:Cryptocrew|Cryptocrew]]'s system created the flag on April 25th, 2021. Blue represents [[wolffian]]-like traits, pink represents müllerian-like traits, purple represents ambiguous traits, yellow represents diversity, white represents community, and black represents abnormalities in size. The black design is supposed to resemble the uterus/ovaries and/or the wolffian reproductive system/testicles.
Anderson coined the alternate flag on the same day with the same meanings.
