Best Answer

The easiest way to tell if you were born intersexed is by examining your genitalia. If it is abnormal, scarred, or significant parts are missing then it is possible that you were born intersexed. A more complex way is to have the doctor examine to discover if you're missing vital organs that are needed for your gender. For example, if a woman is missing her ovaries or a man is missing his testes then they were surely born intersexed.
