CAH “is a group of autosomal recessive disorders caused by enzyme defects in adrenocortical steroidogenesis” (Silveira et al.2016). This condition is also known as hermaphroditism. Under this condition a fetus girl develops caps over the kidney called adrenal glands, which produce male hormone in the female fetus. These hormones cause an enlargement of the baby 's vagina, and cause confusion when the baby is born, the child could be a girl or a boy. This condition could lead to gender dysphoria because the family allowed the child to decide their gender while growing up. There is no medical history on Brees childhood there for we can’t know if she had hormonal imbalances or a genetic vulnerability, but through research we can conclude that Bree could of had a defect as a child, a defect in her hormones would be more likely, because as a child she was attached to a stuffed animal much like girls are very attached estrogen made Bree more sensitive and caring than other boys. A scene in the movie Bree confides in Toby telling him about her stuffed rabbit she took every where and one day her parents just took it from her and told her she was too old to be playing with it. However this isn 't enough evidence to say that Bree suffered any biological disorder that lead to her Gender dysphoria. There is research however that support the biological factors in the development of gender dysphoria. According to the peer reviewed journal written by Silveira.,Knobloch F., Silva C., and Kater, C., a case of gender dysphoria was reported in a 62year old genetic female patient who suffered from CAH, who was raised as a girl, but desired sexual reassignment with the passion of a gender dysphoric individual. Her biological condition caused her Psychological disorder, by being raised as a girl with male hormones she was never able to express those make hormones and couldn 't be
