THE CHINA MAIL, JUNE 10, 1937.
WOMAN'S DOUBLE SEX CHANGE
A double sex change in a woman is reported in "The Lancet" from Vienna.
"A remarkable feature," it is stated, "was the rapidity with which the changes took place in both directions.”
a
The woman," who was 32 and un- married, underwent medical examination following "a very noticeable masculinisation" and was found to be suffering from a tumour.
Very quickly after an operation had been performed for the re- moval of the tumour all the mascu- line attributes receded.
Although quite a number of cases of a single change in sex have oc- curred, double transformations àre
rare. -
