Well in India there is a boy who bleeds from his penis during the second week of every month. He also experiences other menstration symptoms such as nausea, stomach ache and mood swings. His anatomy however, is completly male. So the question is what is causing the bleeding? The article attributes the problem to a possible endometrial lining in his prostate but my question is where is the hormones required for menstration coming from, namely Gnrh, FSH, LH, and progestrogene.

Has any doctors treating him X-rayed to see what the internal structure of his genitalia is? Purhaps he is a Hermaphrodite with highly developed male external genitals, but with the internals of a female.

Does he crave chocolate? Does the back of everyones heads look like batting practice? Does he bloat so his jeans don't fit? Does he read Glamour magazine? Can he swing his head around 360 degrees?

LMAO sounds like my wife, on a bad month

Sounds like a hermaprodite to me. They have to check out his dna as well to see if what kind of chromosomes he has.

XY; XX; XXY

That is actually terrible. It's bad enough being a girl and having to deal with this every month. Choo choo choo..ha ha ha..kill kill kill
but imagine it a boy. He must be mortified.

I am siding with Ezekial on this one. Those were my thoughts as well.

that's what i was thinking as well.

that's tough..........poor kid.


angie

the distinction between male and female is actually far more blurry than people tend to realize. Finding 'wierd' mixes of tissues in people's isn't unheard of, let alone the 'intersexed' individuals. This is pretty interesting tho.

Hermaphrodite Frogs Caused by Common Weed Killer?


Atrazine in groundwater, especially at low doses, may be causing hermaphroditism in frogs. At low doses it cause testosterone to turn into estrogen.

Human male Sperm quality in agricultural Missouri is worse than in New York, LA, or Minneapolis, most likely due to agricultural chemicals getting into tap water.

The poor boy may actually have developed female internal organs, how sad, meaning that the drain from his internal uterus is cross with his ureta, this is a very unusual case.

If that is the case he may have more bladder infections because of the problem.

Or . . . perhaps is something else like a tumor in his bladder.

So basically, if this guy ever grows up and gets married... he's going to be miserable TWICE a month!

The thought that comes to my mind....OUCH OUCH how will this poor kid use a tampon? OUCH OUCH......Are they now going to design menstrual pad type thingys for guys?

He just HAS to be a hermaphrodite.......unless humans are elvolving in myterious trans gender ways.......

River, in this case a tampon wouldn't work. Men would have to invent a cap that would fit snuggly with different absorbentcies, you know for light and heavy days.

lol dont mean to be disrespectful or anything, but that was a funny comment.

poor kid, imagine what his friends would say. not to mention the fact that it has been broadcast on the internet. how humiliating!

Poor bastard. I pity him.

Hopefully they can treat him or something. I imagine it's bad enough being a woman and going through it, but to have it come out through there, that's gotta be just plain god-forsaken.

Poor, poor bastard. =/

-wD

Well I certainly feel bad for him.

I'd imagine if they had to start making tampons for men, theyd just make a kind of condom with a tampon like lining on the inside.


You know I'm not really surprised this is in India, they have kids with tails there.

OMG, this is just TOO strange!!!! Poor guy.

Of course, on one hand I feel TERRIBLE for the boy. Psychologically it must be hell for him. On the other hand, I can't help thinking how awesome it would be if EVERY male was forced to go through this at least once in their lifetime.

I'de be willing to bet the kid was exposed to estrogen mimicking chemicals while he was still in his mother's womb. This is one of the most unusual results from this type of exposure I've read about, but doctors around the world are extremely concerned about the increasing feminization of the male population.

There was a thread on that subject a week or so ago.

And not to mention lots and lots of pollution which causes such anomalies. I wouldn't be surprised if something like this happens elsewhere where the drinking water is absolutely polluted.

This general type of thing (i.e., feminization of males) is happening more in the U.S. than elsewhere.
