'''Tetrasomy X''', '''XXXX syndrome''', '''quadruple X''', or '''48,XXXX''' is an [[intersex]] variation that occurs in [[AFAB]]/[[CTF]] individuals, in which they are born with four X chromosomes rather than only the expected two. It appears to be rare, as approximately 100 cases have been reported worldwide, however there may be unspoken cases of the past, as individuals with this variation can usually function decently well, despite the physical abnormalities that co-side this variation.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrasomy_X</ref> |
