1. Maureen is a 23-year-old female who self-refers to mental health because she is struggling with a recent diagnosis. She recently had appendicitis, but during the diagnostic CT scan she learned that she had cryptorchid testes, and now she is distressed over not knowing if she “is a man or a woman.” She says that she has always been a bit of a tomboy, but that she has never thought of herself as a man, or as wanting to be a man. She has had a boyfriend for 2 years, and she is terrified that if he finds out he will break up with her. She admits that she has never menstruated, but her mother took her to the doctor when she was 16 and “no one seemed worried about it.” The PMHNP recognizes that Maureen’s diagnosis is likely:
Androgen insensitivity syndrome
Turner’s syndrome
Fragile X syndrome
Klinefelter’s syndrome
