[@sharielane]

It's one thing not to tell the teen but not tell her parents as well? That's what got me the most.

[@TheWhiteGoblin]

It is very common with intersex disorders, also telling parents that certain surgeries will make their child into a 'normal' boy or girl, even though there is a lot of evidence that it can be very damaging over all. It is pretty gross and a lot of that sort of thing is completely legal.

[@tabby73]

He could've at least tell the mother and let her decide when and how to tell Jeanne the truth. It was a social stigma back then I guess. Intersex = taboo.

[@luaru5472]

@Aluzky c'mon, they explained clearly in the video how XY chromosomes do not explicitly make someone a male. This whole documentary is literally all about Swyers Syndrome which causes women to be born with XY chromosomes but no male genitalia and no male hormones - "everything we think of as 'male-ness' comes from testosterone". Either you're not paying attention at all or you're being deliberately ignorant.

[@LittleKitty22]

I'm 45 and have never had a period in my life. I started puberty a little but then it stopped and never resumed so I never developed properly. For the last 30 years, doctors have only ever told me "tough", "that's just normal for you", "you are just imagining it" and "you are just getting old" (this when I was 24). I have ever had any kind of treatment, the reason for this lack of development has never been investigated. All I know is that my body never produced any estrogen. Doctors aren't bothered to investigate why. I was wrongly diagnosed with "premature ovarian failure" - but they cannot have FAILED since they never worked to begin with! I have tried to push for proper investigations, only to get shouted at by doctors, sent away, accused of "imagining it", accused of lying, disbelieved, mocked, accused of being a male and just pretending to be female. Doctors tested my chromosomes without telling me as they refused to believe me that I am a female. Other doctors screamed at me that I should get pregnant a few times and "that will sort everything out" (erm - how can a non-developed girl get pregnant??? Apart from that what sort of a thing is this to say to an unmarried lady!). For some reason I also suffer from very advanced male pattern baldness (I have to wear wigs) , which would indicate excess testosterone or a thyroid problem, but doctors are not bothered and just say "this is just normal for you". Well no - it's NOT normal for a young WOMAN to have very advanced male pattern baldness! I am being denied access to my medical records (here in the UK they can just claim it would "harm me" to have access to it) so I am certain something is being covered up.

[@hannankandeebee]

Little Kitty hey. You can have access to your medical records new guidelines have come out. I work for the nhs. I hope everything gets better xx

Whenever I wonder why those people didn't get a second or third opinion on their symptoms I remember "Ah yes, the American health care system" and that's it

[@gothicgrandma4559]

You should try the NHS in the UK. You go to your local GP surgery and see one of the doctors there. If you are fobbed off that's it. You can't look for another doctor because you can only register with a surgery in your catchment area. You can only get referred to a specialist by that GP. The only other option is if it is a genuine emergency you can go to A&E and you will probably just see a triage nurse not even a doctor. It can take years to be diagnosed with something that may need immediate treatment. People die simply because their GP is overworked and every appointment is just 10 minutes long. They actually complain if you come with multiple problems because it won't fit into the 10 minute slot.

[@lottieparker2269]

Actually, while this is true and a GP can deny your right to a second opinion, you can always change your GP.

Warning for anyone with Epilepsy: There are a number scenes within this video where there is some abnormal flashing effects, they are far more frequent within the second half for the video, more common towards the end. It's not supposed to be part of the documentary, as in, it's not done on purpose, it's just a quality issue. I don't understand why the uploader of this video did not mention this in the begining of the video description, but they should have.

Hi.Mary. I was diagnosed with LAM. Almost 5 years ago. I didn't have a collapse lung but shortness of breath and and was told by my G P that I had adult asthma. Then that Winter I came down with pneumonia. My GP sent me like you for a CT scan and discovered cysts in both my lungs. The reason he suspects I have this condition is because I carry the gene defect known as Tuberous Sclerosis. My daughter has minor intellectual and physical disabilities and this is common with one who has LAM condition to have a child with a disability. A blood test can detect if you carry this gene and it is usually passed via the female line. I hope this information is of some use to you. I trust and pray that you keep well. God bless. Therese from Victoria Australia.

[@wendyz7859]

Hi Therese & Mary, my daughter also has LAM and Tuberous Sclerosis. She is intellectually disabled and has AML (renal tumours), brain tumours, pelvic cysts and epilepsy. All as a result of her having the congenital condition called Tuberous Sclerosis. We’re in Adelaide, Australia. TSC (Tuberous Sclerosis Complex), affects multiple organs with tumours and cysts. I’ve just been diagnosed with COPD.
