syntymäsukupuoleen

Syntymäsukupuoli refers to the sex assigned at birth, typically based on visible external anatomy. It is commonly categorized as male or female. This assignment is usually made by a medical professional after observing a newborn's physical characteristics. The determination of sex assigned at birth is a biological and often clinical process. It is distinct from gender identity, which is an individual's internal sense of being male, female, both, neither, or somewhere else along the gender spectrum. While most individuals' gender identity aligns with their sex assigned at birth, this is not universally the case. Understanding syntymäsukupuoli is a foundational aspect of many biological and medical discussions.
