"' 17?-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase III deficiency "'is a rare disorder of sexual development affecting testosterone biosynthesis by 17?-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase III ( 17?-HSD III ), which can produce impaired virilization ( traditionally termed male pseudohermaphroditism ) of genetically male infants and children and excessive virilization of female adults.

The condition manifests itself as pseudohermaphroditism ( partially or fully underdeveloped genitalia ), hypergonadotropic hypogonadism ( decreased or lack of production of sex steroids by the gonads despite high circulating levels of gonadotropins ), reduced or absent puberty ( lack of development of secondary sexual characteristics, resulting in sexual infantilism if left untreated ), and infertility.

Also some evidence indicates the word was already being used by the German and French medical community long before Klebs used it; German physiologist Johannes Peter M�ller equated " pseudohermaphroditism " with a subclass of hermaphroditism from Saint-Hilaire's taxonomy in a publication dated 1834, and by the 1840s " pseudohermaphroditism " was appearing in several French and German publications, including dictionaries.

German-Swiss pathologist Edwin Klebs is sometimes noted for using the word " pseudohermaphroditism " in his taxonomy of intersexuality in 1876, although the word is clearly not his invention as is sometimes reported; the history of the word " pseudohermaphrodite " and the corresponding desire to separate " true " hermaphrodites from " false ", " spurious ", or " pseudo " hermaphrodites, dates back to at least 1709, when Dutch anatomist Frederik Ruysch used it in a publication describing a subject with testes and a mostly female phenotype . " Pseudohermaphrodite " also appeared in the " Acta Eruditorum " later that same year, in a review of Ruysch's work.
