Many people who are intersex can get pregnant. While people who are intersex may have differences in their anatomy, chromosomes, and/or hormones that can impact their ability to get pregnant, many intersex people have ovaries and/or testes that can produce eggs or sperm, which can lead to a pregnancy.
If you’re intersex and aren’t sure if you can get pregnant or are trying to get pregnant, you may want to see a nurse or doctor with reproductive health experience so they can best support you towards a healthy pregnancy. If you’re having trouble getting pregnant, they can also help you figure out what to do to improve your chances of pregnancy.
