-'''Cytochrome PORD (CPORD)''' is an [[intersex]] variation that effects both [[CTM]] and [[CTF]] individuals alike. This variation is characterized by a mutation in horomones, which causes one to gain [[hypogonadism]], and have a lack of testosterone and estrogen alike. It is unknown how common this variation is, as only 65 cases have been reported.

 For those with this variation, [[Ambiguous Genitalia|ambiguous genitals]] and infertility is common amongst both CTM and CTF individuals.
 For CTF individuals, amenorrhea, ovarian cysts, and [[hyperandrogenism]] is common. Because of this, CTF individuals tend to have masculinized traits that cause irregular menstruation, acne, excessive body hair, and weight gain.

 == Causes ==
-This variation is caused by mutations in the POR gene, a gene that provides instructions for enzymes that play a critical role in steroid horomones. Because of this mutation, horomones such as testosterone and estrogen become very low in production, and don't balance correctly within the body.

 == Pregnancy ==
 Individuals who are pregnant with children who have CPORD and/or ABS tend to develop some symptoms themselves while the baby is forming. This includes development of excessive body hair, acne, and a deepening voice. These changes slowly go away after the baby is delivered.
-The reasoning for this is due to horomonal disturbance effecting not only the baby, but the carrier of the baby as well during development.
