So, if you had an oophorectomy you would no longer be biologically female?
I'm in the same situation as a born woman post hysterectomy/oophoectomy. I suppose you could call my HRT 'mones "artificial", but they're definatey not synthetic; and it's the same Premarin millions of other women are taking. It's OK for me to take it without progesterone because cervical cancer isn't a factor.
A genotype "screening test" might show me as being XY. Or might not; It's never been done and I don't know. There's any number of other possibilities.
