45,X/46,XY Mosaicism or Mixed Gonadal Dysgenesis is a rare intersex trait affecting 1 in 15,000 people. It is a chromosomal condition where some of one's cells have an X chromosome and some have XY chromosomes. Each case is different depending on the exact location and amount of X cells and XY cells in one's body. Symptoms typically include short stature and low testosterone levels in those assigned male at birth. Those with 45,X/46,XY Mosaicism are typically born with male genitalia or ambiguous genitalia, though occasionally are born with female genitalia.
