Limiting Factors for an Appropriate Management" / Comentario a: "Manejo transdisciplinario de pacientes con desórdenes del desarrollo sexual en Colombia. Limitantes para un manejo oportuno e integral

ABSTRACT

As the first author of the manuscript[1] commented here, it is my responsibility to open to discussion a critical topic that has gained more awareness and will continue to evolve over time, given the participation of patients in this debate. Since the Chicago Consensus in 2005, the terminology for "disorders of sex development" (DSDs) was established.[2] Ever since that moment, the academic interest was to universalize the terminology to reduce confusion and to improve the academic utilization of a unified language. It also looked to reduce the stigmatization suffered by individuals with the use of the previous terminology.
