    You’re correct in assuming that she will not be able to produce the same levels of testosterone produced by males without testicles. But, the female body does naturally produce testosterone in other glands. I’m unsure of the effects on her natural testosterone production from having a male chromosome though, so I can’t speak to that. Sorry. It’s pretty lame that people can’t ask questions they’re genuinely curious about without getting eviscerated, especially for an anomalous situation like this, all because of political tribalism.
