This is a broad category of conditions, some common and some rare. ==Causes== Some result from excessive or deficient [[androgen]] effect, others result from [[teratogen]]ic effects, or are associated with [[birth defect|anomalies]] of other parts of the body in a recognizable pattern (i.e., a [[syndrome]]). The cause of many of these [[birth defect]]s is unknown. Some simply represent the extremes of the normal range of size for body parts. ==Examples== *[[ambiguous genitalia]] *[[undescended testes]] *[[hypospadias]] *[[chordee]] *[[micropenis]] *[[clitoromegaly]] *[[aphallia]] *[[diphallia]] *[[cloacal exstrophy]] *[[bladder exstrophy]] *[[imperforate hymen]] *[[mullerian agenesis]] {{disease-stub}} {{Congenital malformations of genital organs and urinary system}} [[Category:Congenital disorders]] [[Category:Andrology]] [[Category:Gynecology]] [[Category:Urology]]
