"It is estimated that about 0.1% or 1 in 1,000 people have significant genitalia ambiguity. About ten times as many people have biological intersex characteristics, including hormonal, chromosomal, and other anatomical differences. Including these, the rate of intersex conditions is estimated to be about 1 in 100 (Intersex Society of North America 2018). Often people do not know they are intersex until conditions arise in puberty or until tests are run later in life. Intersex people may also identify as transgender, but being intersex does not make them transgender."
