Male pseudohermaphroditism caused by steroid 5␣-reductase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder. The enzyme steroid 5␣-reductase 2 (encoded by the SRD5A2 gene) catalyses the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, which is required for normal differentiation of the external male g
