Extractions: The Absent Vagina Being born without a vagina is very distressing, and it is almost always associated with an absence of the uterus. The ovaries are normally present and function as anybody else's ovaries would do, producing eggs and female hormones which keep you healthy. You are of course entirely female. This is known as the Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser Syndrome often shortened to Rokitansky Syndrome. How will I know if I have this problem? You discover that you have no vagina when you fail to start having periods at the age that you would expect. You develop breasts and pubic hair like any other woman, but you will not have a period. This is because your ovaries produce the normal female hormones which make normal development occur, but the absence of the uterus and vagina means there is no period. Most girls report this at the ages of 15 or 16 years. Alternatively, some may have difficulties with sexual intercourse as their first problem. What investigations or tests will I have?

Question: I am seeking information regarding the treatment and postoperative management of Rokitansky syndrome. My 17 year-old daughter was recently diagnosed with this disorder, and we need help deciding what the treatment options, and the postoperative outcome may be.

Extractions: Contact Us This Fact Sheet is an AIS Support Group Australia adaptation of the AISSG(UK) Fact Sheet. The AIS Support Group Australia is a peer support group providing information and support to people with AIS and related intersex conditions and their families. Up to 8 weeks gestation every foetus, whether of typical male or female chromosomal sex, has the capacity to develop either a male or female reproductive system, and in a typical male (XY) foetus the active intervention of male hormones (androgens) is needed to produce a fully male system. A female body type with female external genitalia is the basic underlying human form. Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (old name Testicular Feminisation Syndrome) causes an interruption of the foetal development of the reproductive system. In AIS the child is conceived with typical male (XY) sex chromosomes. Embryonic testes develop and start to produce androgens but the body is unable to respond to these androgens to a varying degree. This means that the genitals can vary from completely female if there is no response through to almost completely male if there is a slight insensitivity to androgens or anywhere in between.
