Virilization can occur in childhood in either boys or girls due to excessive amounts of androgens.

The luteinized cells produce androgens, which may lead to hirsutism and virilization (or masculinization).

Consequently, depending on the specific histology produced, these tumours can cause virilization in women and feminization in men.

Virilization of genetically female (XX) infants usually produces obvious genital ambiguity.

In children, side effects may include premature closure of epiphyses, cessation of linear growth, and virilization symptoms.

Virilization of genetic females is partial, often mild, and rarely raises assignment questions.

When virilization is complete and unambiguous, reassignment may be declined or deferred.
